ZigBee technology is widely used in wireless sensor networks with the advantages of low power, low cost, convenient networking, etc. Design of ZigBee-based wireless sensor network nodes have become a demand. The nodes are generally placed in some occasions where the power supply inconvenient and require battery-powered, so the low-power of the nodes is an important indicator. The node chose CC2530 as the hardware core and transplanted Z-Stack protocol stack. It collected different data through different sensors and used ZigBee technology for wireless communication. This article describes the process of node hardware design, and reduces the power consumption of the node with choosing low-power devices, reducing the operating frequency and other methods. Low-power node saves the cost and increases the life of the nodes and the network. So it is good for increasing the continuity and stability of the network.

To realize the design of mobile 4G gateway of ZigBee wireless sensor network (WSN), a scheme of wireless remote monitoring based on ZigBee and general packet radio service (GPRS) WSN gateway system is proposed. The scheme combines the advantages of short distance, low power consumption, low cost and long distance popular communication of ZigBee technology, and uses the system architecture of ZigBee + GPRS + Android. On this hardware platform, the transplantation of Android system and the development of related hardware device drivers are designed and implemented, so as to build the software platform of the system. Based on the software and hardware platform of the system, the related applications are designed and realized according to the function requirements of the system, and the software and hardware platform and the application program are tested and analyzed. The test results show that the system runs steadily and has good performance. To sum up, the hardware platform has the advantages of low energy consumption, high performance and scalability.

This paper presents a low cost Wireless Sensor Network using TCP/IP to use Ethernet configuration and hybrid networks to extend range or improve connectivity in distant areas, in particular is agriculture. The system is designed with soil moisture sensor based on Atmega8L and Nordic nRF24L01 to monitor environmental parameter. Moreover, to make data available globally, we have connected the wireless sensor network to GSM/GPRS. The system not only uses a low power but also has a compact size and applies advantages of TCP/IP

In order to extend the life span of battery-powered wireless sensor network nodes, this article proceed from the power module, data processing module, wireless module and MAC protocols to design an ultra-low-power wireless sensor network nodes. The nodes improve the power module efficiency maximally, at the same time it utilizes the ultra-low-power data processing module and the asynchronous MAC protocol adopting a sleep wake-up mechanism. Thus it reduces the integrated energy consumption of wireless module significantly. The life span of the nodes has been increased more than three times. In a word, the design in proposed in this paper greatly cuts down the energy consumption of wireless sensor network, which has practical significance of expanding the application space and improving the application effects of wireless sensor network.

To avoid the explosion of thermal pipeline and control the flow, pressure and temperature of thermal pipeline, the wireless sensor network (WSN) nodes should be designed and arranged. A new information monitoring system is developed baded on ZigBee. Based on MPLAB® ICD 2, with three sensors, using low-power PIC18F4620 controller chip and CC2420 processor integrated ZigBee technology, the WSN nodes were designed. The data collected by sensors can be sent to management center by wireless network. Manager can control the thermal flow consulting by the message from sensors and find out thermal pipeline danger in time. The system realizes real-time monitoring on the thermal pipeline. The test result showes that the perfomance of the system is stable and can reach the design requirements.

This paper presents the design of a wireless flood sensor to detect the presence of water on home floors, providing early warning of water leaks. A wireless sensor network has been deployed to gather the measurements from the sensor nodes. A control central coordinates the network and processes the data. Users can remotely inquire for the presence of water, status of the batteries for a specific node, the type of liquid and information about its functionality and alarms, thanks to a proprietary software application. The alerts are also communicated to the user within the home through an audible siren. The designed device is optimized in terms of costs, ease of deployment and maintenance, thus making it widely acceptable to end users.
