Connecting to a wireless LAN network is a popular option for accessing internet-based applications. A readily available alternative is tethering or using a mobile hotspot, which allows the sharing of a smartphoneâs mobile data to connect other devices to the internet. Most Android smartphones offer the capability to share mobile data through Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or USB. Tethering effectively transforms a smartphone into a Wi-Fi access point, providing connectivity for laptops, tablets, microcontrollers, and low-power systems-on-chips (SoCs).
In areas with cellular network coverage, tethering offers the advantage of internet access from virtually anywhere, eliminating the need for separate data plans for each device. When password protection is enabled, tethering also ensures a cost-effective and secure internet connection across multiple devices. However, this method can significantly drain the smartphoneâs battery, leading to more frequent recharging, which may reduce the convenience and flexibility typically associated with tethering.
To address the issue of rapid battery discharge during tethering, a setup utilising an ESP32 development board controlled via the ESP RainMaker app is proposed. This configuration includes four parallel systems, each operating on a separate SoC, to collect data and manage various functions during testing. To ensure continuous 24/7 connectivity, the smartphone serving as the mobile hotspot or tethering unit was physically recharged at specific intervals. A critical aspect of this setup is establishing a node through the ESP RainMaker app, which mitigates the problem of faster battery depletion in the tethering smartphone. Fig. 1 shows the authorsâ prototype.
