For applications collecting data more frequently than every 30 seconds, we recommend that several sensor readings be grouped into larger packets (which you send infrequently) if at all possible. Any data traffic generated at a rate higher than once per 30 seconds will result in devices using more power than their minimal possible stateSending packets into the network as infrequently as possible will minimize the amount of power used. |
For example, if your application collects a 2-byte reading from a flow sensor every second, we recommend you cache those readings, and send a packet with 80 bytes of application payload every 40 seconds, rather than sending one packet with 2 bytes of application payload every second.
