Cambridge Wireless

The Short Range Wireless SIG is championed by: Antony Rix from TTP, Paul Maurice of Artimi and Peter George of Anritsu MMDE.

This event is sponsored by Rohde & Schwarz.

Wireless links are beginning to enter the mainstream for applications such as heating control and smart metering.  This is helped by dramatic reductions in cost and power consumption, that enable radio transceivers to have a battery life of weeks or years, or even run from harvested energy.  However, the market is still at an early stage.  This full-day event will bring technologists, designers, business executives and analysts together, to provide insight into which applications will provide greatest value and what barriers must be overcome to further develop the market. 

While the day will focus on applications, rather than the wireless technology itself, the technologies that enable these applications include: Bluetooth, Zigbee, WiFi, SP100 and a host of ISM band proprietary solutions and potentially also wide area technologies such as GSM/GPRS.

We are looking for speakers; either with a need that is not currently being met or studies of the successful application of wireless technology, to talk about the following application areas:

·         Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC)

·         Sensors in building fabric, temperature, humidity etc

·         Wireless switches, wireless control of electrical appliances such as lights, freezers etc

·         Plant/machine control/monitoring

·         Security, alarms, monitoring, access control

·         Energy saving

·         Smart metering

Proposals in related areas are welcome.  To discuss your idea, please email: admin@cambridgewireless.co.uk  

We hope that you will be able to join us for an engaging session of discussion, networking and debate.  Click here to view the draft agenda
