ICT Showroom 5.3

Last week we participated in the annual ICT Showroom in our campus along with 68 other student teams. The event went pretty well and we had good conversations about our project with teachers, representatives from different companies and other students. We had multiple different people from our group presenting our project to different people. On our stand we had a computer running an early demo of a the simulation, an oscilloscope for demonstrating the measurement process and candy to attract people to check out our project.

Our stand demonstrated both the physical hardware in question and what the finished simulation would look like, so people could get an understanding about our project even if they didn't know much about the subject. In the Capstone showroom we could also have a looping video of our project that would have all the important information in a simplified format.

Other projects had a lot of interesting solutions for many different applications. The subjects included for example waste material reuse, brain research and fire rescue planning. This really shows that ICT expertise could be used in a wide range of industries.

The ICT showroom as all in all a great experience and we a looking forward to improving our project and presentation for the upcoming Capstone showroom.

Week 10 Progress/Report

In the last weeks we've almost completed all of the basic measurements using two radios. These basic measurements include link speed, transmission delay, round-trip time, serial port delay and serial port speed, all with different settings and data quantities.

On week 9, Satel provided us with two additional Satel PROOF-TR4 / -TR9 radios and antennas for them. The aim is to simulate a SCADA-network with them, using Raspberry Pis as sub stations. For this we have not had time yet.

Here are some of our measurements so far:

Simulation team progress: 
    - Removed unnecessary code from device helper, device and channel
    - Created serial-stack skeleton
    - Created device-address skeleton class
    - Created uhf-application skeleton class
    - Created client skeleton class
    - Added device attributes
    - Added device attribute getters and setters
    - Created client Write function
    - Created client Read function
    - Created device SerialSend function
    - Created stack Write function
    - Created stack Read function
    - A little bit of fixing here and there to get stuff working together
   
To do:
    - Add delays
    - Create working example
    - Implement scada
    - Master/slave attribute
    - Other smaller stuff

Week 5 Progress/Report

RF team progress:
   - Completed transmission delay measurements
   - Completed link speed measurements

To do:
   - Serial data measurements

Simulation team progress:
   - Brainstormed about the structure of the software and created diagrams
   - Created attributes to the uhf-radio-device

To do:
   - Remove unnecessary code segments from the device and channel files
   - Change Ipv4 model and create own serial model class
   - Start thinking about virtual serial ports to implement scada
   - Start thinking about the error propability matrix model
