Wireless Sensor Network Survey Results

Automation.com carries the news that B&B Electronics has releases the results of an online Wireless Sensor Network Survey of 200 industrial automation end-users and systems integrators. The survery was conducted in cooperation with Sensicast. The full survery results can be downloaded at www.bb-elec.com/wirelesssurvey. Registration is required, so here are some of the main points:
  • 73% are researching wireless sensor networking for industrial monitoring applications
  • 53% are considering deploying a wireless sensor network in 2005
  • The biggest reason for not deploying a WSN is because of reliability
  • 2.4GHz is the preferred frequency
  • Process Monitoring is the most common application of WSN
  • Most deployments will be in one building of less than 10,000 sq. ft.
  • Interfacing to existing systems is the most requested functionality (see my previous post on OCTAVEX)
  • Voltage, pressure, and current are the top requested sensors
  • Most deployments will have less than 25 sensing locations with 1 to 2 sensors at each location.
