Just wanted to post this question to the academic minded people. 802.15.4 is using DSSS, with a code that is fixed for a particular network that you want to deploy. This makes sense if you are in the industry since it will allow non-interfering sensor networks in your home from different vendors. But other than that, and the obviously higher data rate, what are the benefits of shifting towards a packet oriented (less hacking possible!), DSSS system? Also is it really many orders of magnitude better than CC1000 in terms of multipath resistance and reliability (as it should theoretically)? i.e. has this been borne out in real experiments?
Thank you. Regards, Affan Syed. _______________________________________________ Tinyos-help mailing list Tinyos-help@Millennium.Berkeley.EDU https://mail.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-help
