Interference Robust Detector-First Near-Zero Power Wake-Up Receiver

Near-Zero Power Wake Up System Enabled by Ultra High Q-Factor Array of MEMS Resonators

This paper discusses an approach for continuous and low-power sensing of infrequent, high consequence events. The envisioned sub-10 nW power consumption architecture includes an RF detector, an array of MEMS resonators, and an IC detector. This paper focuses on the MEMS resonator array. We show that MEMS resonators with the Quality factor on the order of 1M can solve the challenging problem of ...

Wake-Up-Receiver Concepts - Capabilities and Limitations

A promising idea for optimising the power consumption of mobile communication devices represents the usage of an additional ultra-low-power receiver unit, which is able to control the main transceiver in order to reduce the standby power consumption of the overall system. Such a Wake-Up-Receiver (WuRx) unit senses the medium and switches on the communication interfaces in case of an external re...

Effect of Hash Function on Performance of Low Power Wake up Receiver for Wireless Sensor Network

Next generation network will consist of different types of wireless networks like WSN, Wi-Fi, WiMAX, UMTS, LTE and etc. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) finds unique and special application as compared to the said networks because sensors are deployed in a very secret, awkward and hostile environment like battle field etc. Various wireless sensor nodes are interconnected and form a Wireless Sensor...

A Brief Review on Low Power Wake-Up Receiver for WSN

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) consists of a large amount of low powered nodes which perform tasks like processing, radio transmission-reception, sensing and actuating. To minimize the power consumption in wireless sensor network a dedicated wake-up receiver is used within every sensor node. The wake-up receiver is an additional receiver, which continuously monitors the channel and wakes the res...
