I use a superRMS 2 from these guys:
http://www.remotemonitoringsystems.ca/

The software they put on these things is just a little more polished than the 
packetflux stuff. I use both and love the cost of the packetflux equipment. 

Http://www.irongoat.net/sites/mtsultan is a private link that let's some of my 
partners see what is going on with the site. 

The wiring diagrams might be of use to you.

Re: [WISPA] chipset vs standard based beam forming?

2010-10-27 Thread Brough Turner
As Mike points out, beamforming is an optional part of the 802.11n 
standard and there is at least some silicon support for this option 
emerging (more on that in a moment).  The confusion arises because there 
are several different things which are legitimately called beamforming.


The simplest is a switched beamformer in which there are multiple 
directional antenna elements and the radio is connected to the 
appropriate elements as needed.  This is what Ruckus Wireless does 
today.  They have 12 or more fixed elements and on a frame-by-frame 
basis they decide which two of those elements to connect to the two 
terminals on the Atheros (2x2 MIMO) Wi-Fi chip. A bunch of people have 
patents here, but the ideas are very old so the patents may not be very 
valuable.


Next is phased array beamformers.  Here there are multiple simple 
antenna elements typically equally spaced in an array.  Phase delays are 
introduced so, via constructive and destructive interference, you end up 
with a beam.  Then that beam is steered by varying the phase delays.  
This is also well established technologies that the military have been 
using for (many) decades.


Finally, in MIMO systems, maximal-ratio-combining (MRC) is doing receive 
beamforming in as much as the computation is equivalent to placing the 
maximum receive lobe as close to the desired signal while placing nulls 
as close as possible to the primary interferers.


While the widespead 2x2 MIMO chips are primarily used for horizontal and 
vertical polarization, 3x3 and 4x4 MIMO chips are emerging. With 4x4 we 
can expect to see transmit beamforming via phasing and receive 
beamforming via MRC.  Indeed, two silicon startups, Quantenna 
Communications in California and Celeno Wireless in Israel, have 
announced Wi-Fi chips that support 4x4 MIMO with transmit beamforming.  
The Quantenna chip is used in the Netgear WNHDB3004.


The 802.11n standard specifies how the needed information is passed, so 
the computations that Quantenna and Celeno (and others in the future) do 
can be carried out when devices from different vendors interoperate.

Brough

[WISPA] BIG WIND!

2010-10-27 Thread Robert West
Hope you fellow Midwesterners are faring well with this major pain in the
butt wall of WIND making its way across the states.We had winds clocked
at 85mph and a so-so, mini-tornado/micro-burst about a mile from one of my
gateways.  Tore up lots of stuff but thankfully the only thing I lost was
power.  The handy thing was, this is a gateway that I moved and upgraded
from solar to grid power (But STILL hadn't put in a battery backup
figures)  but I left the old solar install in place in case I ever needed it
(!) and just moved my box from the new to the old and all was good.  Could
have been worse from the looks of the damage it's been causing all over
Ohio, Indiana, etc.  I was just shocked as heck to find nothing damaged.  I
guess over engineering pays off sometimes!

 

Passing any of my luck to the rest of ya!

Does anyone make a battery monitor that will ALSO allow one to reset the 
system?  As in, switch all power off then back on, reboot the entire AP?  Just 
looking to not add another board.  Would be sweet.

The software they put on these things is just a little more polished than the

Re: [WISPA] Monitoring batteries

2010-10-27 Thread Steve
If you take a look at the product mentioned in the post you replied to,
you will see that there are several latching relays, all of which are
capable of remote control and perfect for power cycling equipment.  They
are small relays, so I have one controlling a SSR that powers higher
amperage devices.  If you look around I doubt you will find a better
suited product for remote installation.  my 2 cents.

Glad you're good too! I feel bad for the electric cos, cable cos - not so

Check out the features.

These units have been mentioned a few times in this thread. We use them for 
monitoring solar and wind charging rates, battery voltage as well as providing 
remote reset capability. The board has more inputs than we need, eight ADCs, 
four relays for control and a number of other features.

It was specifically designed for monitoring and control of remote sites. It's a 
bit pricy but it does do the job welll.

Does anyone make a battery monitor that will ALSO allow one to reset the
system?  As in, switch all power off then back on, reboot the entire AP?
Just looking to not add another board.  Would be sweet.

I use a superRMS 2 from these guys:

The software they put on these things is just a little more polished than
the packetflux stuff. I use both and love the cost of the packetflux
equipment. 

 

Http://www.irongoat.net/sites/mtsultan is a private link that let's some of
my partners see what is going on with the site. 

 

The wiring diagrams might be of use to you.

selling dsl. Gonna put up a tower out there and grab a bunch. Keep them

What about the reporting or power levels?  Good enough?  Been looking for a one

If you take a look at the product mentioned in the post you replied to, you 
will see that there are several latching relays, all of which are capable of 
remote control and perfect for power cycling equipment.  They are small relays, 
so I have one controlling a SSR that powers higher amperage devices.  If you 
look around I doubt you will find a better suited product for remote 
installation.  my 2 cents.

Yikes!  Indeed pricy, would almost double the build cost of the AP.  I could
see it for a hub, however.  Looks nice but trying to ignore that

Check out the features.

These units have been mentioned a few times in this thread. We use them for
monitoring solar and wind charging rates, battery voltage as well as
providing remote reset capability. The board has more inputs than we need,
eight ADCs, four relays for control and a number of other features.

It was specifically designed for monitoring and control of remote sites.
It's a bit pricy but it does do the job welll.
