Testing Zigbee RF module applicability for usage in temperature monitoring systems

摘要

The applications of wireless technologies in industrial automation, monitoring and control systems has already proved itself. The technologies like IEEE 802.15.4, ZigBee, Bluetooth Low Energy, WirelessHART, Wi-Fi and others are widely used in sensor networks environments. This paper presents the approach of evaluating the applicability of open-source ZigBee RF module MeshBee? in wireless sensor environments and for potential use in monitoring and control systems. This paper presents the platform and experiment for ZigBee module evaluation. The platform presented in this paper is based on widely used microcontroller unit Arduino UNO Rev3 in combination with MeshBee? wireless module.
