• Learn how to use hardware design techniques to integrate high-power long-range (>km) digital radios maintaining low power consumption (<1uA) in the motes of a wireless sensor platform.
• How to get high-erformance long links maintaining low power by using modular hardware and without relying on the modules proprietary low-consumption modes.
• Why it’s important to use high-sensitivity and high-power radios in order to decrease as much as possible the number of retransmissions.
• How to use “platform-independent” hardware techniques to get the minimum consumption in the sleep mode.
