The Liquid Level Measuring Device in Truck Based on ZigBee

Abstract:

Because of the separation of modified truck’s cab and car tank, there must set long wires to transmit the signal. A liquid level measuring device for truck is designed and developed in this article. Using the ZigBee technology, a wireless data transmit mode, including the hardware and the software, is realized. A compensation and correction method is discussed on the basis of the ultrasonic transmission theory. This device has a simple structure, high precision, low cost, easy to install and so on.
