smarTmesh neTwork overview  
ASmartMeshnetworkconsistsofaself-formingmulti-hop,  
mesh of nodes, known as motes, which collect and relay  
data, and a network manager that monitors and manages  
network performance and security, and exchanges data  
with a host application.  
to the network manager in packets called health reports.  
The network manager uses health reports to continually  
optimizethenetworktomaintain>99.999%datareliability  
even in the most challenging RF environments.  
The use of TSCH allows SmartMesh devices to sleep in-  
between scheduled communications and draw very little  
power in this state. Motes are only active in timeslots  
where they are scheduled to transmit or receive, typically  
resulting in a duty cycle of < 1%. The optimization soft-  
ware in the network manager coordinates this schedule  
automatically. When combined with the Eterna low power  
radio, every mote in a SmartMesh network—even busy  
routing ones—can run on batteries for years. By default,  
all motes in a network are capable of routing traffic from  
other motes, which simplifies installation by avoiding the  
complexity of having distinct routers vs non-routing end  
nodes. Motesmaybeconfiguredasnon-routingtofurther  
reduce that particular mote’s power consumption and to  
support a wide variety of network topologies.  
SmartMesh networks communicate using a time slotted  
channel hopping (TSCH) link layer, pioneered by Dust  
Networks. In a TSCH network, all motes in the network  
are synchronized to within less than a millisecond. Time  
in the network is organized into timeslots, which enables  
collision-free packet exchange and per-transmission  
channel-hopping. In a SmartMesh network, every device  
has one or more parents (e.g. mote 3 has motes 1 and  
2 as parents) that provide redundant paths to overcome  
communicationsinterruptionduetointerference,physical  
obstruction or multi-path fading. If a packet transmission  
fails on one path, the next retransmission may try on a  
different path and different RF channel.  
A network begins to form when the network manager  
instructsitsonboardaccesspoint(AP)radiotobeginsend-  
ingadvertisements—packetsthatcontaininformationthat  
enablesadevice tosynchronize tothenetworkandrequest  
tojoin. Thismessageexchangeispartofthesecurityhand-  
shakethatestablishesencryptedcommunicationsbetween  
the manager or application, and mote. Once motes have  
joined the network, they maintain synchronization through  
time corrections when a packet is acknowledged.  
ALL NODES ARE ROUTERS.  
THEY CAN TRANSMIT AND RECEIVE.  
THIS NEW NODE CAN JOIN  
ANYWHERE BECAUSE ALL  
NODES CAN ROUTE.

APPLICATION  
59012IPR SNO02  
At the heart of SmartMesh motes and network managers  
is the Eterna IEEE 802.15.4e System-on-Chip (SoC), fea-  
turing Dust Networks’ highly integrated, low power radio  
design, plus an ARM Cortex-M3 32-bit microprocessor  
runningSmartMeshnetworkingsoftware.TheSmartMesh  
networking software comes fully compiled yet is configu-  
rable via a rich set of application programming interfaces  
(APIs) which allows a host application to interact with  
the network, e.g. to transfer information to a device, to  
configure data publishing rates on one or more motes,  
or to monitor network state or performance metrics. Data  
publishing can be uniform or different for each device,  
with motes being able to publish infrequently or faster

59012IPR SNO01  
An ongoing discovery process ensures that the network  
continually discovers new paths as the RF conditions  
change. In addition, each mote in the network tracks per-  
formance statistics (e.g. quality of used paths, and lists of  
potential paths) and periodically sends that information  
than once per second as needed.

Note 9: See the SmartMesh IP Manager API Guide for the time indication  
notification definition.  
Note 10: Network time accuracy is a statistical measure and varies over  
the temperature range, reporting rate and the location of the device relative  
to the manager in the network. See Typical Performance Characteristics  
section for a more detailed description.  
Note 4: Actual RF range is subject to a number of installation-specific  
variables including, but not restricted to ambient temperature, relative  
humidity, presence of active interference sources, line-of-sight obstacles,  
and near-presence of objects (for example, trees, walls, signage, and so  
on) that may induce multipath fading. As a result, range varies.

In mesh networks data can propagate from the manager  
to the nodes, downstream, or from the motes to the man-  
ager, upstream, via a sequence of transmissions from one  
device to the next. As shown in Figure 8, data originating  
from mote P1 may propagate to the manager directly or  
through P2. As mote P1 may directly communicate with  
the manager, mote P1 is referred to as a 1-hop mote. Data  
originatingfrommoteD1,mustpropagatethroughatleast  
one other mote, P2 or P1, and as a result is referred to as  
a 2-hop mote. The fewest number of hops from a mote to  
the manager determines the hop depth.

PACKET RATE (PACKETS/s)  
59012IPR F07a  
As described in the Application Time Synchronization  
section,Eternaprovidestwomechanismsforapplications  
to maintain a time base across a network. The synchro-  
nization performance plots that follow were generated  
using the more precise TIMEn input. Publishing rate is  
the rate a mote application sends upstream data. Syn-  
chronization improves as the publishing rate increases.  
Baseline synchronization performance is provided for a  
network operating with a publishing rate of zero. Actual  
performance for applications in network will improve  
as publishing rates increase. All synchronization testing  
was performed with the 1-hop mote inside a temperature  
chamber. Timing errors due to temperature changes and  
temperature differences both between the manager and  
this mote and between this mote and its descendents  
therefore propagated down through the network. The  
synchronization of the 3-hop and 5-hop motes to the  
manager was thus affected by the temperature ramps  
even though they were at room temperature. For 2°C/  
minute testing the temperature chamber was cycled  
between –40°C and 85°C at this rate for 24 hours. For  
8°C/minutetesting,thetemperaturechamberwasrapidly  
cycled between 85°C and 45°C for eight hours, followed  
by rapid cycling between –5°C and 45°C for eight hours,  
and lastly, rapid cycling between –40°C and 15°C for  
eight hours.

Typical perFormance characTerisTics  
As described in the SmartMesh Network Overview sec-  
tion, devices in network spend the vast majority of their  
time inactive in their lowest power state (Doze). On a  
synchronous schedule a mote will wake to communicate  
with another mote. Regularly occurring sequences which  
wake, perform a significant function and return to sleep  
are considered atomic. These operations are considered  
atomic as the sequence of events can not be separated  
into smaller events while performing a useful function.  
For example, transmission of a packet over the radio is an  
atomicoperation.Atomicoperationsmaybecharacterized  
in either charge or energy. In a time slot where a mote  
successfully sends a packet, an atomic transmit includes  
setuppriortosendingthemessage,sendingthemessage,  
receiving the acknowledgment and the post processing  
needed as a result of the message being sent. Similarly  
in a time slot when a mote successfully receives a packet,  
an atomic receive includes setup prior to listening, listen-  
ing until the start of the packet transition, receiving the  
packet, sending the acknowledge and the post processing  
required due to the arrival of the packet.  
To ensure reliability each mote in the network is provided  
multiple time slots for each packet it nominally will send  
and forward. The time slots are assigned to communicate  
upstreamwithatleasttwodifferentmotes.Whencombined  
with frequency hopping this provides temporal, spatial  
and spectral redundancy. Given this approach a mote will  
often listen for a message that it will never receive, since  
the time slot is not being used by the transmitting mote.  
It has already successfully transmitted the packet. Since  
typicallythreetimeslotsarescheduledforeveryonepacket  
to be sent or forwarded, motes will perform more of these  
atomic idle listens than atomic transmit or atomic receive  
sequences. Examples of transmit, receive and idle listen  
atomic operations are shown below.

with other wireless products. In addition, precise timing  
enablesnetworkstoreducespectraldeadtime, increasing  
total network throughput.  
Eterna is powered from a single pin, VSUPPLY, which  
powers the I/O cells and is also used to generate internal  
supplies.Eterna’stwoon-chipDC/DCconvertersminimize  
Eterna’senergyconsumptionwhilethedeviceisawake.To  
conserve power the DC/DC converters are disabled when  
the device is in low power state. Eterna’s integrated power  
supply conditioning architecture, including the two inte-  
gratedDC/DCconvertersandthreeintegratedlowdropout  
regulators, provides excellent rejection of supply noise.  
Eterna’s operating supply voltage range is high enough  
to support direct connection to lithium-thionyl chloride,  
Li-SOCl2, sources and wide enough to support battery  
operation over a broad temperature range.  
APPLICATION TIME SYNCHRONIꢀATION  
In addition to coordinating time slots across the network,  
which is transparent to the user, Eterna’s timing manage-  
mentisusedtosupporttwomechanismstosharenetwork  
time. Having an accurate, shared, network-wide time base  
enables events to be accurately time stamped or tasks to  
be performed in a synchronized fashion across a network.  
Eterna will send a time packet through its serial interface  
when one of the following occurs:

The value of the timestamp is captured in hardware relative

Eterna integrates a power-on reset (PoR) circuit. As the  
RESETn input pin is nominally configured with an internal  
pull-up resistor, no connection is required. For a graceful  
shutdown, the software and the networking layers should  
be cleanly halted via API commands prior to assertion of  
theRESETnpin.SeetheSmartMeshIPManagerAPIGuide  
for details on the disconnect and reset commands. Eterna  
includes a soft brown-out monitor that fully protects the  
flash from corruption in the event that power is removed  
while writing to flash. Integrated flash supervisory func-  
tionality, in conjunction with a fault tolerant file system,  
yields a robust non-volatile storage solution.  
TIME REFERENCES  
Eterna includes three clock sources: an internal relaxation  
oscillator, a low power oscillator designed for a 32.768kHz  
crystal, and the radio reference oscillator designed for a  
20MHz crystal.  
PRECISION TIMING  
Relaxation Oscillator  
A major feature of Eterna over competing 802.15.4 prod-  
uct offerings is its low power dedicated timing hardware  
and timing algorithms. This functionality provides timing  
precision two to three orders of magnitude better than  
any other low power solution available at the time of  
publication. Improved timing accuracy allows motes to  
minimize the amount of radio listening time required to  
ensure packet reception thereby lowering even further  
the power consumed by SmartMesh networks. Eterna’s  
patented timing hardware and timing algorithms provide  
superior performance over rapid temperature changes,  
further differentiating Eterna’s reliability when compared  
The relaxation oscillator is the primary clock source for  
Eterna, providing the clock for the CPU, memory subsys-  
tems, and all peripherals. The internal relaxation oscillator  
is dynamically calibrated to 7.3728MHz. The internal re-  
laxation oscillator typically starts up in a few μs, providing  
anexpedient, lowenergymethodfordutycyclingbetween  
active and low power states. Quick start-up from the doze  
state,definedintheStateDiagramsection,allowsEternato

32.768kHz Crystal  
API UART PROTOCOL  
Once Eterna is powered up and the 32.768kHz crystal  
source has begun oscillating, the 32.768kHz crystal re-  
mains operational while in the active state, and is used as  
the timing basis when in doze state. See the State Diagram  
section, for a description of Eterna’s operational states.  
The API UART protocol was created with the goal of sup-  
portingawiderangeofcompanionmultipointcontrolunits  
(MCUs)whilereducingpowerconsumptionofthesystem.  
The receive half of the API UART protocol includes two ad-  
ditional signals in addition to UART_RX: UART_RX_RTSn  
and UART_RX_CTSn. The transmit half of the API UART  
protocol includes two additional signals in addition to  
UART_TX: UART_TX_RTSn and UART_TX_CTSn. The  
API UART protocol is referred to as Mode 4.  
20MHz Crystal  
The 20MHz crystal source provides a frequency reference  
for the radio, and is automatically enabled and disabled  
by Eterna as needed.  
In the figures accompanying the protocol descriptions,  
signals driven by the companion processor are drawn  
in black and signals driven by Eterna are drawn in blue.  
RADIO  
Eterna includes the lowest power commercially available  
2.4GHz IEEE 802.15.4e radio by a substantial margin.  
(Please refer to section Radio Specifications, for power  
consumption numbers). Eterna’s integrated power ampli-  
fier is calibrated and temperature-compensated to con-  
sistently provide power at a limit suitable for worldwide  
radio certifications. Additionally, Eterna uniquely includes  
a hardware-based autonomous MAC that handles precise  
sequencing of peripherals, including the transmitter, the  
receiver, and advanced encryption standard (AES) periph-  
erals. The hardware-based autonomous media access  
controller (MAC) minimizes CPU activity, thereby further  
decreasing power consumption.  
UART Mode 4  
UART Mode 4 incorporates level-sensitive flow control  
on the TX channel and requires no flow control on the  
RX channel, supporting 115200 baud. The use of level-  
sensitive flow control signals enables higher data rates  
with the option of using a reduced set of the flow control  
signals; however, Mode 4 has specific limitations. First,  
the use of the RX flow control signals (UART_RX_RTSn  
and UART_RX_CTSn) for Mode 4 are optional provided  
the use is limited to the industrial temperature range  
(–40°Cto85°C);otherwise, theflowcontrolismandatory.  
If RX flow control signals are not used, UART_RX_RTSn  
shouldbetiedtoVSUPPLY(inactive)andUART_RX_CTSn  
should be left unconnected. Second, unless the com-  
panion processor is always ready to receive a packet,  
the companion processor must negate UART_TX_CTSn  
prior to the end of the current packet. Failure to negate  
UART_TX_CTSn prior to the end of a packet may result  
in back to back packets. Third, the companion processor  
UARTS  
The principal network interface is through the applica-  
tion programming interface (API) UART. A command-line  
interface (CLI) is also provided for support of test and  
debug functions. Both UARTs sense activity continuously,  
consumingvirtuallynopoweruntildataistransferredover  
the port and then automatically returning to their lowest  
power state after the conclusion of a transfer. The defini-  
tion for packet encoding on the API UART interface can

IP Manager CLI Guide.

The UART_TX_CTSn signal may be actively driven by the  
companion processor when ready to receive a packet or  
UART_TX_CTSn may be tied low if the companion pro-  
cessor is always ready to receive a packet. After detecting  
a logic ‘0’ on UART_TX_CTSn Eterna sends the entire  
packet. Following the transmission of the final byte in  
the packet Eterna negates UART_TX_RTSn and waits for  
to remain inactive during the majority of the radio activity.

SECURITY  
Network security is an often overlooked component of a  
complete network solution. Proper implementation of se-  
curity protocols is significant in terms of both engineering  
effort and market value in an OEM product. Eterna system

that includes authentication and encryption at the MAC  
and network layers with separate keys for each mote.  
This not only yields end-to-end security, but if a mote is

is still secure. A mechanism for secure key exchange al-

network capable of dynamically optimizing operation  
over changing environments requires solutions that are  
far too complex to completely support through hardware  
acceleration alone. As described in the Precision Timing  
section,propertimemanagementisessentialforoptimizing  
a solution that is both low power and reliable. To address  
theserequirementsEternaincludestheautonomousMAC,  
which incorporates a coprocessor for controlling all of  
the time-critical radio operations. The autonomous MAC  
provides two benefits: first, preventing variable software  
latency from affecting network timing and second, greatly  
reducing system power consumption by allowing the CPU  
RADIO INHIBIT  
The RADIO_INHIBIT input enables an external control-  
ler to temporarily disable the radio software drivers (for  
example, to take a sensor reading that is susceptible to  
radio interference). When RADIO_INHIBIT is asserted  
the software radio drivers will disallow radio operations  
including clear channel assessment, packet transmits, or  
packet receipts. If the radio is active in the current time  
slot when RADIO_INHIBIT is asserted the radio will be  
disabledafterthepresentoperationcompletes. Fordetails  
on the timing associated with RADIO_INHIBIT, see the  
RADIO_INHIBIT AC Characteristics section.

NETWORKING  
Oncesoftwarehasbeenloaded,devicescanbeconfigured  
via either the CLI or API ports. Configuration commands  
and settings are defined in SmartMesh IP Manager API  
Guide and SmartMesh IP Manager CLI Guide.  
The LTP5901-IPR/LTP5902-IPR network manager pro-  
vides the ingress/egress point for at the wired to wireless  
mesh network boundary, via the API UART interface. The  
complexity of the mesh network management is handled  
entirely within the embedded software, which provides  
dynamic network optimization, deterministic power man-  
agement, intelligent routing, and configurable bandwidth  
allocation while achieving carrier class data reliability and  
low power operation.  
FLASH DATA RETENTION  
Eterna contains internal flash (non-volatile memory) to  
store calibration results, unique ID, configuration settings  
and software images. Flash retention is specified over the  
operatingtemperaturerange.SeeElectricalCharacteristics  
and Absolute Maximum Ratings sections.  
Dynamic Network Optimization  
Non destructive storage above the operating temperature  
range of –40°C to 85°C is possible; although, this may  
result in a degradation of retention characteristics.  
Dynamic network optimization allows Eterna to address  
the changing RF requirements in harsh industrial en-  
vironments resulting in a network that is continuously  
self-monitoringandself-adjusting.Themanagerperforms  
dynamicnetworkoptimizationbaseduponperiodicreports  
on network health and link quality that it receives from  
the network motes. The manager uses this information  
to provide performance statistics to the application layer  
and proactively solve problems in the network. Dynamic

can be approximated by calculating the dimensionless

requirements, such as request/response, fast file trans-  
fer, and alerting. Relevant configuration parameters are  
described in the SmartMesh IP Users Guide. The design  
trade-offs between network performance and current  
consumption are supported via the SmartMesh Power  
and Performance Estimator.  
network optimization not only maintains network health,  
but also allows Eterna to deliver deterministic power  
management. One of the key advantages of SmartMesh  
networking solutions is the network manager is aware of  
and tracking the success or failure of every packet trans-  
action, so not only can the network be optimized, but the  
solution can be rigorously tested to produce a system  
solution with better than 99.999% reliability.  
IP Manager Options  
The IP Manager can operate with or without external  
SRAM, as described in the LTP5901 and LTP5902 Inte-  
gration Guide. When used without external SRAM, the IP  
manager is limited to managing networks of 32 motes  
or fewer and is limited to a maximum packet throughput  
of 24 packets per second. With external SRAM, the IP  
Managersupportsmanagingnetworksofupto100motes  
and the packet throughput of the IP Manager increases  
from 24 packets per second to 36 packets per second.  
Deterministic Power Management  
Deterministic power management balances traffic in the  
network by diverting traffic around heavily loaded motes  
(for example, motes with high reporting rates). In do-  
ing so, it reduces power consumption for these motes  
and balances power consumption across the network.  
Deterministic power management provides predictable  
maintenance schedules to prevent down time and lower  
the cost of network ownership. When combined with field  
devices using Eterna’s industry-leading low power radio  
technology,deterministicpowermanagementenablesover  
a decade of battery life for network motes.  
State Diagram  
In order to provide capabilities and flexibility in addition  
to ultra low power, Eterna operates in various states, as  
shown in Figure 12 Eterna State Diagram and described  
in this section. State transitions shown in red are not  
recommended.  
Intelligent Routing  
Intelligent routing provides each packet with an optimal  
path through the network. The shortest distance between  
two points is a straight line, but in RF the quickest path is  
notalwaystheonewiththefewesthops.Intelligentrouting  
finds optimal paths by considering the link quality (one  
path may lose more packets than another) and the retry  
schedule, in addition to the number of hops. The result  
is reduced network power consumption, elimination of  
in-network collisions, and unmatched network scalability  
and reliability.  
Start-Up  
Start-up occurs asa resultofeithercrossing the power-on  
reset threshold or asserting RESETn. After the comple-  
tion of power-on reset or the falling edge of an internally  
synchronized RESETn, Eterna loads its fuse table which,  
as described in the previous section, includes setting  
I/O direction. In this state, Eterna checks the state of  
the FLASH_P_ENn and RESETn and enters the serial  
flash emulation mode if both signals are asserted. If the  
FLASH_P_ENnpinisnotassertedbutRESETnisasserted,  
Eterna automatically reduces its energy consumption to  
a minimum until RESETn is released. Once RESETn is  
de-asserted, Eterna goes through a boot sequence, and  
then enters the active state.  
Configurable Bandwidth Allocation  
SmartMesh networks provide configurations that enable  
users to make bandwidth and latency versus power trade-  
offs both network-wide and on a per device basis. This  
flexibly enables solutions that tailored to the application

Serial Flash Emulation  
Operation  
When both RESETn and FLASH_P_ENn are asserted,  
Eterna disables normal operation and enters a mode to  
emulate the operation of a serial flash. In this mode, its  
flash can be programmed.  
Once Eterna has completed start-up, Eterna transitions to  
the operational group of states (active/CPU active, active/  
CPU inactive, and Doze). There, Eterna cycles between the  
various states, automatically selecting the lowest pos-  
sible power state while fulfilling the demands of network  
operation.

Active State  
Doze State  
In the active state, Eterna’s relaxation oscillator is running  
and peripherals are enabled as needed. The ARM Cortex-  
M3cyclesbetweenCPU-activeandCPU-inactive(referred  
to in the ARM Cortex-M3 literature as sleep now mode).  
Eterna’s extensive use of DMA and intelligent peripherals  
that independently move Eterna between active state and  
doze state minimizes the time the CPU is active, signifi-  
cantly reducing Eterna’s energy consumption.  
The doze state consumes orders of magnitude less cur-  
rent than the active state and is entered when all of the  
peripherals and the CPU are inactive. In the Doze state  
Eterna’s full state is retained, timing is maintained, and  
Eterna is configured to detect, wake, and rapidly respond  
to activity on I/Os (such as UART signals and the TIMEn  
pin). In the doze state the 32.768kHz oscillator and as-  
sociated timers are active.
