Virtual Extension gets mentioned often. We picked out a few of
our favorites articles.
Metering International
September 2010 - From a different perspective: the Technologies behind Smart Metering Networks
"Matching and often surpassing the technical capabilities of routing-based
wireless solutions, wireless mesh networks based on synchronized flooding often
have a lower cost of ownership, do not assume data ownership, but rather entrust
it to the provider, and allow for far simpler meter deployments - without
requiring additional in-field IT personnel or the retraining of those already
trained to install the meters."
EE Times Europe
May 2010 - Semtech and Virtual Extension team to bring new generation of
Wireless Mesh Networks to Smart Lighting applications
"Semtech Corp., a leading supplier of analog and mixed-signal semiconductors, and
Virtual Extension, a leading mesh wireless sensor network
provider, recently announced a two-chip wireless mesh network chipset that
brings a new level of performance and signal robustness to smart lighting
applications."
Industrial Ethernet Book
April 2010 - New routing improves Wireless Mesh Network performance
"Diversity Path Mesh is probably the first mesh wireless network to use the
flooding technique instead of standard routing; synchronized flooding produces a
surprising performance benefit over and above the positive benefits of flooding
propagation."
Sensors
February 2010 - Compatibility of Diversity Path Mesh to the IP networks'
environment
"Users of Virtual Extension's VEmesh products are now able to enjoy both worlds:
the ubiquitous TCP/IP protocol for back-office and the Diversity Path Mesh
de-facto standard for high performance Mesh Wireless Networks for the
communication with the smart meters or networks."
Industrial Embedded Systems
July 2009 - Mesh wireless sensor networks: Choosing the appropriate
technology
"While most network approaches use routing as the basic architecture, new
flooding-based technology offers distinct advantages, especially when it comes
to larger networks. In networks with a large number of nodes and hops,
especially where robustness and reliability are important, synchronized flooding
technology provides a more suitable solution. Typical applications with these
larger node counts are smart metering and highway illumination."
Electric Energy Online
June 2009 - Easy-to-use, cost-efficient energy management with Virtual
Extension wireless mesh networks and TI technology
"Optimized for applications requiring high performance, such as automated meter
reading (AMR), Virtual Extension’s innovative Diversity Path Mesh™ technology
transmits simultaneously a multitude of radio paths, creating a robust wireless
network for 100 percent area coverage. With this technology, utilities can
realize savings in terms of data collection, theft prevention, remote operation
and prepaid services."
Embedded Star
April 2008 – How to Improve the Performance of a Mesh Wireless Sensor Network
"Diversity Path Mesh is probably the first mesh wireless network to use the
flooding technique instead of routing, as it has managed to overcome any
disadvantages of flooding by using the synchronized flooding, resulting in a
surprisingly and revolutionary set of performances. At the same time, it
encompasses all the benefits of the flooding technique."
Automated Buildings
April 2008 - Next-Generation Mobility Feature in Wireless Mesh Networks
"Mobility - a unique capability enables the users to move or relocate the
network coordinator (or the coordinators – if there are more than one), the
gateway or the nodes anywhere within the propagation range of the cell, with no
need to make any changes, no re-programming or re-setting, and hence no
corresponding delays and no down-time."
