An Environmental Monitoring System Based on ZigBee for Emergency Applications

This paper implements a fast disposing wireless sensor network (WSN) with low power consumption. The system, which is based on ZigBee technology, detects environment information, such as temperature, relative humidity and pressure etc. By the portable structure design, the system can be established or dismantled quickly in a desired area, such as a incomplete building, a temporary watched environment and emergency scene, etc. In this paper, system design is given, hardware design and implement is introduced, and different antennas are tested.
