Packet Format
Low power operation
Wake, load program code, calibrate radio
Transmit 3 packets at full output power (2.5dBm) using just 15.5mA
Sleep with RAM held between transmissions
19byte total transmitted packet (13 bytes MAC frame plus 6 byte
header)
Standard IEEE802.15.4 frame
Sequence number stored in external EEPROM when packet is sent
Ensures each packet has unique sequence number

Summary
Energy harvesting technology is an important technology for
powering wireless communications
Wireless technology choices are determined by the amount
of energy harvested and the tasks to be accomplished
There are several ultra-low power wireless choices
Optimizing the wireless network initialization, device
registration process, and communication message duration is
essential for proper network operation of Energy Harvesting
powered wireless devices.
