Spring 2016 Final Notes - May 15, 2016
Pending Issues To Fix
- XBee Pro S2B RP-SMA ceased in production
- Look into different XBee Modules
- Research different ways to transmit data
- Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Cellular
Improvements
- Stronger XBee or different method of transmitting data
- More accurate testing in the rain
- Conduct tests with rain between the two XBee modules
- Test with wet antennas to replicate the weatherboxes in the rain
Future Work
- Create device to act as Access Point for when weatherboxes are too far from the server
- Access points can be XBees configured as Routers to relay the message to the server
- Access points should have about the same lifetime as the weatherbox for more convenience
- Possible PCB design for an Access Point
- Find a replacement for the XBee Pro S2B RP-SMA
