Automatic ZigBee-Based Wireless Sensor Network for Real Time Temperature Control

With the incremental developments that the technology offers, many very promising technologies have been developed to make our lives easier, allowing us to do things more quickly and efficiently and it becomes crucial to understand and explore its methodologies. Among these technologies, the use of home automation technologies become crucial for effective research. Wireless sensor network (WSN) for temperature controlling through the use of ZigBee technology has been used in this study while temperature controlling is very important. The purpose of this work is to illustrate the design and implementation of a wireless sensor network based on ZigBee technology to monitor temperature information in remote locations, these temperature data is saved in database server save, and to control the environmental temperature by turn ON/OFF fan or heater. The implemented system constitutes with gateway (coordinator), end nodes, and a PC server. ZigBee technology has been chosen to provide a reliable wireless communication channel between the end nodes and the gateway (coordinator), and between end nodes themselves. This system has been tested by connecting the coordinator of the master station with the PC. The three end- nodes and the coordinator have been distributed inside the home. In this system the function of the main ZigBee interface is to receive temperature data collected from terminals, saving that data in a database, making a decision and then sending the feedback control signal.
