Abstract
In this paper, the WirelessHART communication scheme is investigated. The protocol is at first described, in order to underline the key aspects of its design; then, a simulation tool is presented: it enables analysis that accounts for both protocol and physical layers issues. In particular, interference effects on protocol choices can be easily analyzed. The experimental results, obtained from simulations, highlight improvements of WirelessHART with respect to IEEE 802.15.4 standard, concerning the Packet Error Ratio (PER) degradation of interfering networks.
