The Green Wifi Prototype
This prototype #2 was assembled using a PVC frame. The testing is underway on the roof of Bruce's home's roof in San Francisco, California. During the month of March 2006, we had record rain of 27 out of 30 days, so was a good test for weak sun levels and cloudy days.


The Green WiFi node/hotspot prototype #3 will utilizes more advanced power control connected between the 10 watt solar panel to the wifi network router using TCP/IP networking protocol via an interface to the network router Ethernet interface. The system also comprises power control module software running on wifi router, communicating via the Ethernet port. Based on the output of the solar panel(s) and the charge state of the battery backup, the control module and software can interact with the network router to regulate power usage of the wifi router, via software control of the RF output level, time of day, number of DHCP clients attached, and strength of link to a associated node point on a wireless grid network or point to point wireless.



Latest Prototype with NEMA 4 enclosure, Omni-directional Antenna, and ICCM - Sept 2006
