Abstract
This paper presents an implementation of the Network Capable Application Processor (NCAP) and the Wireless Transducer Interface Module (WTIM) architectures based on the new IEEE P1451.5 standard. Proposed architecture is implemented using a computer for NCAP, an FPGA board, a sensor board and two radio modules, which communicate through the ZigBee wireless communication technology between the NCAP and the WTIM based on the IEEE 1451.0 and the IEEE 1451.5 interfaces. In this paper, two experiments has been done to verify operations of proposed architecture. From the experimental results, we verify that the proposed architecture performs the wireless sensor communication functions efficiently.
