Design and Implementation of a Web-based Greenhouse Remote Monitoring System with Zigbee Protocol and GSM Network
Journal Title: روش های هوشمند در صنعت برق - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 19
Abstract
In modern and big greenhouses, it is necessary to measure several climate parameters to automate and control the greenhouse properly. Monitoring and transmitting by cable may lead to an expensive and stiff measurement system. Since, Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a distributed system that consists of small-size wireless sensor nodes equipped with radio and one or several sensors; it is a low cost option to build the required monitoring system. In this paper, we introduce and implement an intelligent monitoring system based on WSN by using Xbee modules. The Xbee Series 2 hardware uses a microchip from Ember Networks that enables several different flavors of standards-based ZigBee mesh networking. All gathered information by sensors, are sent to a remote center in form of GPRS packets through a GSM network and viewed by monitoring software. The proposed system has low power consumption, low cost and simple driver circuits. Furthermore, it can support various types of digital and analog sensors.

Placement of Phasor Measurement Units in Power Networks and Optimal Distribution of Measurement Redudancy
In this paper, in addition to optimal placement of phasor measurement units (PMUs) a new method is proposed for optimal distribution of measurements redundancy. Since the buses having first order redundancy degrade the s...
Design of a Sliding Mode Controller for Two-Wheeled Balancing Robot
Nowadays, the control of mechanical systems with fewer inputs than outputs (Under-actuated systems) has become a challenging problem for control engineers. Two-wheeled balancing robots is one of the appealing examples of...
