June 5, 2012 - MicroStrain Releases LXRS Wireless Sensor Network that supports scalable networks of high speed sensor nodes without data loss due to temporary radio frequency (RF) fading, multipath, or interference. With the LXRS "lossless" protocol, wireless sensor networks can deliver 100% reliable data throughput under most operating conditions.
The LXRS Wireless Sensing System includes:
- Lossless wireless communication protocol providing 100% packet success rate under most operating conditions
- Extended Range radio link to 2 kilometers
- Scalable wireless sensor networks supporting continuous, burst, and hybrid sampling modes
- Time Synchronized to ± 32 microseconds
The LXRS Wireless Sensing System works by leveraging an advanced bi-directional radio communication protocol. When data are received without errors by the WSDA base station, the WSDA sends an acknowledgement that these packets were received. Data that are not acknowledged remain within each LXRS sensor node's non-volatile memory for scheduled re-transmission without reducing the overall system bandwidth.
