Abstract :
Based on the study of the characteristics of ZigBee technology, and the analysis of the structure of wireless sensor networks. Proposed a new reliable, flexible and inexpensive WSN system based on the ZigBee technology. Its structure that the MAC layer and the network layer of ZigBee been taken over wholly is given, and its node that integrates the WSN nodes and ZigBee module together, include both the hardware implementation and the software implementation based on TinyOS, is designed. At the end, analyzed the desired characteristics of the WSN system applied in industrial and proved that the new WSN system has a more vast range of prospects in the application in industrial.
