SmartWake focuses on low power communication and reduces the need for longer transceiver activity. A duty cycle is not required to switch between an active and sleep cycles. The integration of the wake-up unit in sensor nodes makes it possible for the nodes to stay in a deep sleep mode until a wake-up signal is received. The detection of the signal occurs on a passive level without the wireless transceiver being active. Data packet transmission takes place when the transceiver is activated. A.
