Interfaces for autarkic wireless sensor...

Wireless devices need to operate without connection to an energy source autarkically see below over a long time. As energy harvesting is limited this also implies that power and energy management are a major concern. Thus, the devices are often extremely reduced in terms of capabiltities and availability. Nevertheless, accessing such devices from the internet should still be easy and hassle-free. We show how the ISO/IEC/IEEE 21450-2010 smart transducer standard can be used for this purpose. In addition, we provide an overview of common concepts that might be used in a similar way. Furthermore, we discuss requirements with respect to various energy modes.
