MicroStrain's Extended Range, Synchronized (mXRS™) Wireless Sensing System combines breakthrough ultra-stable precision time sync with network scalability to enable thousands of wireless sensor nodes to communicate to a single base station over long distances.

Our new mXRS™ Wireless Sensing System includes:

1. WSDA®-Base or WSDA® gateways which synchronize the precision timekeepers on every node to +/- 32 microseconds and autonomously perform wireless sensor data aggregation using time as unifying variable.
2. Node Commander® software which enables users to configure various nodes in their wireless network for periodic or burst mode sampling with high channel counts and high sample rates - for example: 2016 nodes at 2 samples per second (SPS), 32 nodes at 128 SPS, 4 nodes at 512 SPS.
3. Wireless sensor nodes with on-board, ultra-stable precision timekeepers and user-configurable
   communications range to 2 kilometer
   s (~1 mile).

The mXRS™ Wireless Sensing System is ideally suited for applications where synchronized data is required, where precision timing is critical, where many sensor nodes must communicate over a single radio frequency channel, and where extended communications is required. Because the sensor nodes can be programmed to sample simultaneously, or in short bursts at high data rates, energy is conserved. For many applications, this enables energy harvesters to be used to power the sensor nodes.

Applications include advanced condition based maintenance and structural health monitoring of heavy equipment, industrial machines, fixed wing aircraft, helicopters, civil structures, vehicles, and wind turbines.
