Abstract :
Wireless sensor networks consist of dozens of tiny constrained devices, which transfer data encapsulated into the packets over the air. It is crucial to have a packet analyser at the hand for real development and debug purposes. This article gives an overview of the available tools for packet analysis and ongoing research focused on open packet analyser development. We proposed two platforms one with Ethernet and second one with a serial interface. The latter has been evaluated. The results show that the analyser is able to work with the maximum throughput for IEEE 802.15.4.
