To solve the topology structure of a greenhouse environment-monitoring system and the ductility of joints, this study presents a design of a greenhouse-monitoring system based on the ZigBee wireless sensor network (WSN). The hardware and software designs of the network node are provided, and the process of the ZigBee network coordinator is elucidated. The system uses the microcontroller unit PIC18F4620CC2420 wireless transceiver module to send and receive data. Data from temperature and humidity sensors are collected using an inter-integrated circuit bus through the ZigBee network transmission to the monitoring platform. Test results show that the system has the advantages of having a simple structure, flexible nodes, and low power consumption. It can effectively monitor the temperature and humidity in a wireless environment. WSNs considerably help in greenhouse environment monitoring. The use of advanced technology to control greenhouse temperature and humidity can satisfy the optimum growth environment of greenhouse crops and effectively improve the yield and quality of crops. The application of WSNs in greenhouse monitoring is significant to the development of modern and precision agriculture in China.

To improve the efficiency of the remote monitoring system for logistics transportation, we proposed a remote monitoring system based on wireless sensor network and GPRS communication. The system can collect information from the wireless sensor network and transmit the information to the ZigBee interpreter. The monitoring system mainly includes the following parts: Car terminal, GPRS transmission network and monitoring center. Car terminal mainly consists by the Zigbee microcontroller and peripherals, wireless sensor nodes, RFID reader, GPRS wireless communication module composed of a micro-wireless monitoring network. The information collected by the sensor communicates through the GPRS and the monitoring center on the network coordinator, sends the collected information to the monitoring center, and the monitoring center realizes the information of the logistics vehicle in real time. The system has high applicability, meets the design requirements in the real-time acquisition and information transmission of the information of the logistics transport vehicles and goods, and realizes the function of remote monitoring.
