Objective
The objective of this post is to send the temperature and light data from a sensor node to the sink. I tested this example in a CM5000 sensor node and a sink, which is basically a standard computer with a CM5000 sensor node connected to a USB port. I used Contiki 3.0 and Ubuntu 16.04.
Sensor Node Code
The sensor node code has two basic components: a process known as
read_temperature_light to sense the temperature and light data, and a process known as
example_unicast_process to send this information wirelessly via a unicast message. Next, i will explain each process.
- read_temperature_light: This process has a timer called et which expires each 5 seconds. It means that each 5 seconds this process will execute. When the process executes, it sense the temperature and light values from the sensor node, then it saves this information in the structure called envir. Finally, the second process (example_unicast_process) is called and we deliver it the structure envir. The latter is done via the function process_post(). Below, you will see the code of this process.
PROCESS_THREAD(read_temperature_light, ev, data) // Process for reading the temperature and light values
{
static struct etimer et; // Struct used for the timer
int temporal; //Temporal Variable
PROCESS_BEGIN(); // Says where the process starts
while(1){
etimer_set(&et, CLOCK_SECOND * 5); // Configure timer to expire in 5 seconds
SENSORS_ACTIVATE(light_sensor); // Activate light sensor
SENSORS_ACTIVATE(sht11_sensor); // Activate temperature sensor
PROCESS_WAIT_EVENT_UNTIL(etimer_expired(&et)); // Wait until timer expires
printf("Data\t"); // Print the string "Data"
sequence++;
printf("%d\t", sequence); // Print the sequence number
envir.sequence = sequence; // To save the sequence in the struct envir
printf("%d\t", temporal = get_temp()); // Print the temperature value
envir.temp = temporal; // To save the temperature in the struct envir
printf("%d\n", temporal = get_light()); // Print the light value
envir.light = temporal; // To save the light in the struct envir
process_post(&example_unicast_process, PROCESS_EVENT_CONTINUE , &(envir) ); // This function posts an asynchronous event to the process example_unicast_process with the information of the structure called envir
etimer_reset(&et); // Reset timer
SENSORS_DEACTIVATE(light_sensor); // Deactivate light sensor
SENSORS_DEACTIVATE(sht11_sensor); // Deactivate temperature sensor
}
PROCESS_END();//Says where the process ends
}
example_unicast_process: This processs receives the structure envir and sends it wirelessly to the sink, which has address 1.0. Below, you will see the code of this process
PROCESS_THREAD(example_unicast_process, ev, data) // Process for sending a unicast message
{
PROCESS_EXITHANDLER(unicast_close(&uc);)//Specify an action when a process exits.
PROCESS_BEGIN(); // Says where the process starts
unicast_open(&uc, 146, &unicast_callbacks); //Opens a unicast connection
while(1) {
linkaddr_t addr; //Declares the addr variable
PROCESS_WAIT_EVENT(); //Wait for an event to be posted to the process.
struct environment *envirRX = data; //Saves the information that comes from the other process (read_temperature_light) into a structure pointer called *envirRX
printf("Data\t"); // Print the string "Data"
printf("%d\t", envirRX->sequence ); // Print the sequence number
printf("%d\t", envirRX->temp ); // Print the temperature value
printf("%d\n", envirRX->light ); // Print the light value
packetbuf_copyfrom( envirRX , sizeof( (*envirRX) ) );
addr.u8[0] = 1; //This is the sink's address
addr.u8[1] = 0; //This is the sink's address
if(!linkaddr_cmp(&addr, &linkaddr_node_addr)) { //if the address is diferent from the current's node
unicast_send(&uc, &addr); //Send a unicast message to the sink
}
}
PROCESS_END(); //Says where the process ends
}
Sink Code
The sink code only has a process known as
sink_receive which is in charge of receiving the structure
envir and printing its information. Below, you will see the code of the process
sink_receive. This process just opens a unicast connection and waits for an event, it means, that each time an event is detected (Some node sent a message), then the sink will execute the function
recv_uc to handle the event.
PROCESS_THREAD(sink_receive, ev, data) //Declares the protothread called sink_receive
{
PROCESS_EXITHANDLER(unicast_close(&uc);) // Specify an action when a process exits
PROCESS_BEGIN(); // Says where the process starts
unicast_open(&uc, 146, &unicast_callbacks); //Opens a unicast connection
while(1) {
PROCESS_WAIT_EVENT(); //Wait for an event to be posted to the process
//Wait for the event of receiving a message
}
PROCESS_END(); //Says where the process ends
}
Full Example
Below you will find three source codes. The first one is loaded to the CM5000 sensor node to read the temperature and light data and send it wirelessly to the sink, which has address
1.0. The second code is loaded to the sink which waits until a message is received, and then prints its contents. The third code is a .h file that defines the structure
environment.
