Smart Home-/Smart-Building-Anwendungen sind ein stetig wachsender Markt. Smart Gardening ist ein Beispiel dafür, Nutzern mehr Komfort und eine bessere Lebensqualität zu Hause oder in Bürogebäuden zu ermöglichen. Im Rahmen dieses Beitrags wird die Entwicklung eines Indoor-Smart-Gardening-Systems mit dem Fokus auf energieautarkes Arbeiten vorgestellt. Herzstück des Systems ist ein 3D-gedruckter Blumentopf für einzelne Pflanzen mit integrierter Elektronik zum Monitoring der wichtigsten Pflanzenparameter und einem integrierten Wasserreservoir mit Tauchpumpe für das automatisierte Bewässern der Pflanze. Energy Harvesting per Solarzellen ermöglicht ein energieautarkes Arbeiten des Blumentopfes. Eine selbstentwickelte Low-Power-Funkschnittstelle im Blumentopf und ein externes Gateway ermöglichen die drahtlose Vernetzung mehrerer Pflanzen. Das Gateway dient zur Auswertung der Pflanzenparameter, der Ansteuerung der im Netzwerk vorhandenen Blumentöpfe und als Benutzerinterface.
Industrie 4.0 bedeutet nicht nur einen Wandel der technischen Möglichkeiten und Arbeitsbedingungen, sondern auch einen Bedarf an neuen, sich kontinuierlich weiterentwickelnden Kompetenzen und die Bereitschaft der Beschäftigten, Veränderungen mitzugestalten. Spielerische Ansätze der Kompetenzentwicklung können v.a. bei weiterbildungsfernen Mitarbeitern hilfreich sein, um das komplexe Thema verständlich zu vermitteln. Der Beitrag beschreibt ein Seminarkonzept mit integriertem Brettspiel, mit dem Teilnehmer anhand eines fiktiven Unternehmens (Müller GmbH) die Transformation eines Unternehmens in die Industrie 4.0 spielerisch nachvollziehen. Dieses Konzept erweist sich in einer ersten Evaluation als durchaus vielversprechend.
Medical devices accompany our everyday life and come across in situations of worse condition, in significant moments concerning the health or during routine checkups. To ensure flawless operations and error-free results it is essential to test applications and devices. High risks for patient’s health come with operating errors [33] so that the presented research project, called Professional UX, identifies signals and irritations caused by the interaction with a certain device by analyzing mimic, voice and eye tracking data during user experience tests. Besides, this paper will provide information on typical errors of interactive applications which are based on an empirical lab-based survey and the evaluated results achieved. The pictured proceeding of user experience tests and the following analysis can also be applied to other fields and serves as a support for the optimization of products and systems.
Apache Hadoop is a well-known open-source framework for storing and processing huge amounts of data. This paper shows the usage of the framework within a project of the university in cooperation with a semiconductor company. The goal of this project was to supplement the existing data landscape by the facilities of storing and analyzing the data on a new Apache Hadoop based platform.
A novel Bluetooth Low Energy advertising scan algorithm is presented for hybrid radios that are additionally capable to measure energy on Bluetooth channels, e.g. as they would need to be compliant with IEEE 802.15.4. Scanners applying this algorithm can achieve a low latency whilst consuming only a fraction of the power that existing mechanisms can achieve at a similar latency. Furthermore, the power consumption can scale with the incoming network traffic and in contrast to the existing mechanisms, scanners can operate without any frame loss given ideal network conditions. The algorithm does not require any changes to advertisers, hence, stays compatible with existing devices. Performance evaluated via simulation and experiments on real hardware shows a 37 percent lower power consumption compared to the best existing scan setting while even achieving a slightly lower latency which proves that this algorithm can be used to improve the quality of service of connection-less Bluetooth communication or reduce the connection establishment time of connection-oriented communication.
The TriRhenaTech alliance universities and their partners presented their competences in the field of artificial intelligence and their cross-border cooperations with the industry at the tri-national conference 'Artificial Intelligence : from Research to Application' on March 13th, 2019 in Offenburg. The TriRhenaTech alliance is a network of universities in the Upper Rhine Trinational Metropolitan Region comprising of the German universities of applied sciences in Furtwangen, Kaiserslautern, Karlsruhe, and Offenburg, the Baden-Wuerttemberg Cooperative State University Loerrach, the French university network Alsace Tech (comprised of 14 'grandes écoles' in the fields of engineering, architecture and management) and the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland. The alliance's common goal is to reinforce the transfer of knowledge, research, and technology, as well as the cross-border mobility of students.
With the surge in global data consumption with proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT), remote monitoring and control is increasingly becoming popular with a wide range of applications from emergency response in remote regions to monitoring of environmental parameters. Mesh networks are being employed to alleviate a number of issues associated with single-hop communication such as low area coverage, reliability, range and high energy consumption. Low-power Wireless Personal Area Networks (LoWPANs) are being used to help realize and permeate the applicability of IoT. In this paper, we present the design and test of IEEE 802.15.4-compliant smart IoT nodes with multi-hop routing. We first discuss the features of the software stack and design choices in hardware that resulted in high RF output power and then present field test results of different baseline network topologies in both rural and urban settings to demonstrate the deployability and scalability of our solution.
Enabling ultra-low latency is one of the major drivers for the development of future cellular networks to support delay sensitive applications including factory automation, autonomous vehicles and tactile internet. Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) is a 3 rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Release 13 standardized cellular network currently optimized for massive Machine Type Communication (mMTC). To reduce the latency in cellular networks, 3GPP has proposed some latency reduction techniques that include Semi Persistent Scheduling (SPS) and short Transmission Time Interval (sTTI). In this paper, we investigate the potential of adopting both techniques in NB-IoT networks and provide a comprehensive performance evaluation. We firstly analyze these techniques and then implement them in an open-source network simulator (NS3). Simulations are performed with a focus on Cat-NB1 User Equipment (UE) category to evaluate the uplink user-plane latency. Our results show that SPS and sTTI have the potential to greatly reduce the latency in NB-IoT systems. We believe that both techniques can be integrated into NB-IoT systems to position NB-IoT as a preferred technology for low data rate Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communication (URLLC) applications before 5G has been fully rolled out.
The monitoring of industrial environments ensures that highly automated processes run without interruption. However, even if the industrial machines themselves are monitored, the communication lines are currently not continuously monitored in todays installations. They are checked usually only during maintenance intervals or in case of error. In addition, the cables or connected machines usually have to be removed from the system for the duration of the test. To overcome these drawbacks, we have developed and implemented a cost-efficient and continuous signal monitoring of Ethernet-based industrial bus systems. Several methods have been developed to assess the quality of the cable. These methods can be classified to either passive or active. Active methods are not suitable if interruption of the communication is undesired. Passive methods, on the other hand, require oversampling, which calls for expensive hardware. In this paper, a novel passive method combined with undersampling targeting cost-efficient hardware is proposed.
Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) as a radio access technology for the cellular Internet of Things (cIoT) is getting more traction due to attractive system parameters, new proposals in the 3 rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Release 14 for reduced power consumption and ongoing world-wide deployment. As per 3GPP, the low-power and wide-area use cases in 5G specification will be addressed by the early NB-IoT and Long-Term Evolution for Machines (LTE-M) based technologies. Since these cIoT networks will operate in a spatially distributed environment, there are various challenges to be addressed for tests and measurements of these networks. To meet these requirements, unified emulated and field testbeds for NB-IoT-networks were developed and used for extensive performance measurements. This paper analyses the results of these measurements with regard to RF coverage, signal quality, latency, and protocol consistency.
