Abstract :
This paper describes energy efficient ZigBee system configured in star form to monitor health of electrical machines. Simulations are conducted to determine the throughput and energy consumption under Guaranteed Time Slot (GTS) operational conditions using superframes. The information transmitted from the machines has been processed using a SCADA system to set alarms and maintain trends. It is found that in wireless networks the GTS operates successfully for data collection with critical importance.
