Real Time Monitoring of High Temperature of Remote Places Using Wireless Sensor Network Without use of any Peripheral Hardware

摘要

This paper is about the use of thermocouples in wireless sensor networks using Java. Thermocouples are able to measure temperatures as high as 1200 degree Celsius. Standard implementation of thermocouples requires the use of peripheral hardware to measure temperature. Through this paper, it has been shown how Java can be used to interface the thermocouple directly with the Xbee radio modules using customized API, without using any peripheral hardware or microcontrollers. Real time data are stored and analyzed through graph.
