It replaces the GenericBase -of TinyOS 1.0 and the TOSBase of TinyOS 1.1. - -On the serial link, BaseStation sends and receives simple active -messages (not particular radio packets): on the radio link, it sends -radio active messages, whose format depends on the network stack being -used. BaseStation will copy its compiled-in group ID to messages -moving from the serial link to the radio, and will filter out incoming -radio messages that do not contain that group ID. - -BaseStation includes queues in both directions, with a guarantee that -once a message enters a queue, it will eventually leave on the other -interface. The queues allow the BaseStation to handle load spikes more -gracefully. - -BaseStation acknowledges a message arriving over the serial link only if -that message was successfully enqueued for delivery to the radio link. - -The LEDS are programmed to toggle as follows: - -RED Toggle - Message bridged from serial to radio -GREEN Toggle - Message bridged from radio to serial -YELLOW/BLUE Toggle - Dropped message due to queue overflow - in either direction - -When using a CC2420 radio, several default preprocessor configurations -are defined in the Makefile: - * CC2420_NO_ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS - - Prevents the base station from falsly acknowledging packets - * CC2420_NO_ADDRESS_RECOGNITION - - Allows the base station to sniff packets from any transmitter - -Other combinations can be defined to meet your application's needs: - * CC2420_NO_ADDRESS_RECOGNITION only - - Sniff all packets, but acknowledge packets only if they - are sent to the base station's address - - * Removing all preprocessor definitions in the Makefile - - Only accept packets destined for the base station's address, - and acknowledge those packets - - -Tools: - -tools/java/net/tinyos/sf/SerialForwarder. - -See doc/serialcomm/index.html for more information using these tools. - -Known bugs/limitations: - - -- 2.39.2
