I am analysing if someone has used FF h1 device using wireless technology to connect to the HSE device on h1 link.

If not on wireless then using GSM/Telephone line.
 
There is currently no standard for putting FF H1 on wireless, although this is a topic on which ISA SP100 committee is working and has been proposed. On the other hand, it is possible today to put an FF HSE signal on Wi-Fi. All of the capability of H1 is present in HSE except power and intrinsic safety. Except for the Foundation approved HSE Linking Devices, I do not know of any field devices that have HSE interfaces. This means that the field device operating on H1 needs to terminate into an HSE Linking Device, then that HSE link may be on Wi-Fi.
