A Wireless Data Collection System Using PIC16F877 and GPRS

This paper introduces a data collection system that uses wireless communication components PIC16F877 and GPRS to transfer and capture the data remotely. The key data collection terminal is insisted by a micro controller named PIC16F877 which is responsible for controlling several parts such as LED screen, MC39i working in GPRS as well as various data operating modules. MC39i is responsible for sending the captured data to information processing center via GPRS network. This system is significant for the industry control under remote situations such as real-time supervision with certain distance so as to avoid harmful substance.
