March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802. 15-15-0072-02-004s Metrics used in some Wireless Sensor Network standards Mitsuru Iwaoka Shusaku Shimada R2: Correct measurement table Submission Slide 2 Mitsuru Iwaoka, Yokogawa Electric Co.
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802. 15-15-0072-02-004s Preface Some Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) standards (ISA100.11a and WirelessHARTTM) provide a set of metrics for: Network health monitoring Link health monitoring Device health monitoring Some of these metrics are also useful for other 802.15.4 based networks. 802.15.4s SRU should support a subset of these metrics. Submission Slide 3 Mitsuru Iwaoka, Yokogawa Electric Co.
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802. 15-15-0072-02-004s Summary of Metrics Metrics Network Link Ch. Device Number of joins to the network Latency Number of packets transmitted Number of packets received Number of failed transmission (No Ack) Percentage of time of failed transmissions (No Ack) Number of deferred transmission (CCA) Percentage of time of deferred transmissions (CCA) Number of failed reception (CRC error) Received signal level (RSSI) Received signal quality indicator (RSQI) Average / Maximum Buffer Utilization Security Submission Slide 4 Mitsuru Iwaoka, Yokogawa Electric Co.
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802. 15-15-0072-02-004s Metric: Throughput Throughput is not directly measured Number of successfully transmitted packets are measured periodically. Throughput is estimated by Num. of successfully Tx packets / interval Submission Slide 5 Mitsuru Iwaoka, Yokogawa Electric Co.
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802. 15-15-0072-02-004s Metric: Latency Two types of latency metric are used: The percentage of scheduled packets that arrive later than expected. These packets may be delayed due to delivery over secondary paths or due to congestion in intermediate devices. Latency is computed from the packet timestamp and the time of packet reception Each packet receives a timestamp when it is put in the transmit buffer Standard deviation of latency (jitter) is also computed Time synchronization is necessary (e.g. TSCH) Submission Slide 6 Mitsuru Iwaoka, Yokogawa Electric Co.
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802. 15-15-0072-02-004s Metric: Security Link level MIC error counter Network level MIC error counter Network level failed join counter Submission Slide 7 Mitsuru Iwaoka, Yokogawa Electric Co.
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802. 15-15-0072-02-004s Metric: RSSI/RSQI RSSI is reported as a signed 8-bit integer, reflecting an estimate of received signal strength in dBm. RSSI reports may be biased by +64 dBm to give an effective range of -192 dBm to +63 dBm. RSQI is reported as a qualitative assessment of signal quality, with higher number indicating a better signal. 1..63 indicates a poor signal 64..127 a fair signal 128..191 a good signal 192..255 an excellent signal. 0 indicates that the chipset does not support any signal quality diagnostics other than RSSI. Submission Slide 8 Mitsuru Iwaoka, Yokogawa Electric Co.
March 2015 doc.: IEEE 802. 15-15-0072-02-004s Network / Link / Device A gateway accumulate measurement of each link to calculate network level metrics. Each device provides link level and channel level measurements of metrics. Propose to support Link and channel level metrics in 802.15.4s. Submission Slide 9 Mitsuru Iwaoka, Yokogawa Electric Co.
