Abstract

According to the characteristics of forest fire, this paper design a forest fire monitoring system based on wireless sensor network. The system consists of ZigBee coordinator, routers, end nodes and PC computer. The ZigBee nodes compose wireless sensor network by ad-hoc network mode, and is mainly responsible for collecting and transporting the special environment parameters of the forest including temperature, humidity, and light intensity and so on. LabVIEW based on PC computer analyzes and displays the data that transported from ZigBee network, so as to achieve real-time remote monitoring of forest environment.
