What Does It Cost Your Node to Ask Somebody Else How Uncertain a Reading Is?
A battery-powered sensor either radios its reading somewhere to be interpreted, acts on a threshold somebody guessed, or ignores the question. UxHw® computes the distribution on the node at tens of milliwatts. Enter your fleet, your radio, and what a service visit costs.
Fleet Size50,000
Battery-powered nodes in the field.
Readings Per Node Per Day
288
One every five minutes is 288 a day. Each one is either quantified locally, shipped to a server, or trusted blind.
What Happens Today
These are the three real baselines, and only the first has a compute cost to compare against. The other two are capability cases and the page says so.
Signaloid Module
C0-microSD at 17.1 mW average is the part this workflow was designed around.
Radio Energy Per Reading
Energy to transmit one reading and receive the answer. No default: it depends on your radio, your link budget, and your duty cycle, and it is the figure the offload comparison turns on.
Battery Capacity
What the node has to live on between service visits.
Service Visit Cost
What it costs to send someone to change a battery. On a dispersed fleet this dominates every other number on the page. No default.
