Abstract

SmartMesh IP is an innovative way to connect smart devices with advanced network management and comprehensive security features. This paper proposes a SmartMesh IP network system with a network manager and a group of motes and implemented the system through hardware integration, firmware design, and software development, as well as system testing. Through various experiments, the software, firmware, and hardware platforms have been shown to be able to fully configure the SmartMesh IP devices and get them to perform real-world applications such as monitoring the environment temperature at different places within the SmartMesh IP network. By using internal or external temperature sensors, the platforms developed in C# programming have shown to successfully achieve the temperature data collection and the network topology viewing. The proposed design and implementation method can provide practical reference for the development and industrial application of SmartMesh IP networks.
