Design of Building Fire Detection System Based on ZigBee

Article Preview

Abstract:

Comparing with other fire detection system used in buildings, this paper proposes a design scheme based on ZigBee. ZigBee is a well known wireless communication technology which is wildly used in industrial monitoring. It solves the problem of difficulty to set up the network, high cost and restricted scope in existing cable fire detection monitoring system. This system mainly comprises sensor nodes, middleware and monitoring application. We adopt MESH topology in wireless sensor networks in order to enlarge the monitoring scope. To find the accurate fire position quickly, GPS is adopted in design of sensor node. The Device Cloud is used in middleware and monitoring application to provide open APIs for web, 3G and SMS. Using these technologies the system can provide real-time fire monitoring.
