DESCRIPTION:The seminar will provide an overview of the current work in par
 tnership with CaribouLabs to develop wireless architecture specifically fo
 r heliostat fields.\nThe project objective is development of a wireless co
 ntrol hardware and architecture that is built from the ground up to meet t
 he heliostat industry’s wireless needs around (1) Reliability\, (2) Perf
 ormance\, 3) Versatility\, (4) Security\, (5) Cost. Making the hardware op
 en-source and establishing a testbed will accelerate the heliostat industr
 y’s development of low-cost fields. CaribouLabs has designed a wireless 
 communication architecture utilizing software-defined radios for communica
 tion distances between 10 and 1500m. The system is versatile in that targe
 t metrics are applicable to the wider heliostat industry while being compa
 tibility with dedicated security protocols. NREL is in the process of inst
 alling 100 wireless controller nodes at the Flatirons campus over a range 
 of ~1000 m. This testbed will be operated in various communication environ
 ments and compared against simulations run by CaribouLabs. Furthermore\, t
 he testbed will be available to work with other outside researchers with f
 ocus on heliostat wireless communications.\n\n[]\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Matthe
