  • Evaluating Lora Physical As a Radio Link Technology for Use in a Remote-Controlled Electric Switch System for a Network Bridge
    Evaluating LoRa Physical as a Radio Link Technology for use in a Remote-Controlled Electric Switch System for a Network Bridge Radio-Node Abdullahi Aden Hassan / Rasmus Karlsson Källqvist KTH ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING AND COMPUTER SCIENCE Acknowledgments We would like to thank our academic mentor Anders Västberg for helping us with the process of writing and carrying through this degree project, answering all of our questions, and for proof reading this report. We would like to thank Amin Azari for showing genuine interest in our project and for answering some math questions we had when calculating the radio link budget, and for discovering that the formula in a book we were using had a printing error which was initially causing our results to be wrong. Thank you to fellow students Michael Henriksson and Sebastian Kullengren for a thorough opposition to this report and for much helpful feedback in keeping the text readable and scientific. Thank you to Björn Pehrson for representing AMPRNet Sweden and giving us the opportunity to work on this project, financing the system prototype and for giving helpful feedback. Finally, we would like to thank program director Bengt Molin for teaching us much of what we know of embedded systems and for lending us equipment used in the development of the hardware prototype. i Abstract This report explores the design of a system for remotely switching electronics on and off within a range of at least 15 km, to be used with battery driven radio nodes for outdoor Wi-Fi network bridging. The application of the network bridges are connecting to remote networks, should Internet infrastructure fail during an emergency.

  • New Gateways (PDF
    Packet Network Notice Rev: 28-Nov-2011 Date: Nov 28, 2011 From: Santa Clara County ARES/RACES Packet Committee Subject: Packet Network Update – New AMPRnet and E-mail gateways Attention: All ECs, AECs, MACs and other Santa Clara County Packet Users This Packet Network Notice contains important information which affects your ability to access and use the county packet backbone. This update covers the following topics: • New AMPRnet Gateway • New E-mail Gateway Please read this information thoroughly and pass along to any packet users in your local area. New AMPRnet Gateway The AMPRnet is an AMateur Packet Radio network consisting of packet radio BBSs located worldwide. Local networks of BBSs are interconnected to other local networks through gateways. These gateways use IP-in-IP tunnels to connect to each other. AMPRnet IP addresses are allocated from the IP address block of 44.0.0.0/8. Once a BBS or local network of BBSs is connected to AMPRnet, each of the BBSs can reach any other BBS on the AMPRnet, and vice-versa. For example, in the State of Michigan, each county has a local network of one or more BBSs. Each county is connected to all other counties (and to the rest of the world) with AMPRnet connections. Here in California, we can use AMPRnet connections to reach other counties which do not have a radio path to our network. We have just started to reach out to other counties to work on making those connections. There are two primary uses for this connectivity: 1) Messaging: Messages can now be addressed to anyone at any of the AMPRnet BBSs with a simple and standard Internet-style address format: [email protected].

  • PCI20EX PCI Express (Pcie)
    PCI20EX PCI Express (PCIe) Bus ARCNET® Network Interface Modules INSTALLATION GUIDE INTRODUCTION The PCI20EX series of ARCNET network interface modules (NIMs) links PCI Express (PCIe) bus compatible computers with the ARCNET local area network (LAN). Since most PC motherboards have migrated from the legacy PCI and PCI-X Bus, a PCI Express style NIM is required. The PCI20EX series is compliant to the PCI Express Card Electromechanical Specification Revision 2.0 and both standard height and low-profile brackets are provided. The PCI Express interface allows for jumperless configuration and Plug and Play operation. The module operates with either an NDIS driver or a null stack driver in a Windows® environment. The PCI20EX incorporates the COM20022 ARCNET controller chip with enhanced features over the earlier generation ARCNET chips. New features include command chaining, sequential access to internal RAM, duplicate node ID detection and variable data rates up to 10 Mbps. Bus contention problems are minimized since the module’s interrupt and I/O base address are assigned through Plug and Play. The PCI20EX exploits the new features of the COM20022 which includes 10 Mbps communications utilizing the various EIA-485 transceiver options. Each PCI20EX module has two LEDs on the board for monitoring network operation and bus access to the module. It is equipped with an 8 position, general purpose DIP switch typically used to assign the ARCNET node address. Ultimately, the node address is configured via software so the DIP switch can also indicate user-defined functions such as data rate, cable interface, or master/slave status of the system.
