Hey All,
I am trying to modify the TINYOS's Antenna part, since it is not related to any processors on or off chip, to make the motes even smaller and can have instant memory upon wake up only, I want to implement WIFI based recharging antenna for the mote and motherboard or middle ware base stations of TINYOS suite. And later for RabbitCore 2000RC, the updated version of TINYOS. Can someone suggest some ways or research papers? Thanks!

I have made the necessary changes, in the PlatformSerialC.nc file for switching between UART 1 and UART 0. Is there anything i am missing to configure like the baud rate or anything i am not doing what the JAVA code is doing like opening the Ports before communication?

Do you understand how UART communications works and how the interconnect needs to be? How exactly did you wire Mote0/Uart0 to Mote1/Uart0? You had better have a decent ground and then Mote0/Uart0/TX should go to Mote1/Uart0/RX and vice versa. Then study the UART chapter of the 1611 users guide and write a little C program. (you can embed it in the code called from Boot.booted when the mote boots). You have this little C program, initilize the UART, and then do nothing but check for a TXIFG (means there is space in the outbound transmit queue) and send a well know char of your choice. If you want to be messing around with interconnected embedded systems, you really need to know how to deal with low level programming. And also how to wire things up so that it has a chance of working. That whole thing you tried with the USB denotes a complete lack of understanding of how that stuff is supposed to work. It didn't have a prayer. For USB to work there has to be a controlling host. Hooking two USB devices up back to back doesn't have a prayer.
