Research of Remote Monitor System for Agriculture Equipment Based on Embedded System and Wireless Network

A remote monitor system was came up with in this paper aiming at dynamically monitor agriculture equipment working status. The system used Zigbee based portable data terminal as data collector, ARM11 based embedded system as wireless gateway, and laptop as remote monitor device. An embedded software based on WinCE6.0 was developed for data processing and transmitting, and a VC++ based software was developed for remote monitor, data store and alarm. In order to verify the performance of the system, a working subsoiler stress measurement test was made in soil-bin, the result indicated the system showed a high performance in data collection, transmission, processing and remote monitor, and could provide a support in agriculture equipment working status monitor.
