Abstract: As the basis of internet of things, wireless sensor network technology has been widely studied. However, currently studied wireless sensor network systems should be continuously powered and the energy consumption is big. They are not suitable for the strict low energy consumption or no continuous power supply applications. This paper presents a wireless sensor network control system based on the ultra-low energy consumption architecture. Experimental results show that the system can control all kinds of devices with very low energy consumption and it does not need continuous power supply. This indicates that the wireless control system is very flexible and convenient and can be widely used in the scenarios with strict low energy consumption requirement.

Keywords: low energy consumption; wireless sensor networks; WSNs; network control systems; wireless control.
