The project work offers several
opportunities for engineering students to learn important things and
improve practical knowledge. Anyone aspiring to become a full-fledged
engineer must require additional knowledge along with the subject
knowledge. So, an engineering student must obtain more practical
knowledge through a pragmatic learning approach by means of PROJECT
WORKs such as electronics projects. Thus, this article discusses some new wireless sensor networks projects and communication projects for final year engineering students in 2014- 2015.
Sensor Network Projects for Engineering
Wireless sensor network projects include wireless sensor networks applications such as wireless SCADA, Zigbee home automation, transformer health monitoring system and so on.
Wireless Network Based Wireless SCADA
It is not possible to achieve manual
control over multiple continuous processes going on in industries. The
proposed system is designed to achieve and control the multiple
processes in large scale industries remotely by supervision. The SCADA
is one of the great technologies in basic electronics projects which is used to monitor the remote area without human interference. In this project, using four temperature sensors
formed as wireless sensor networks projects, which are located in
various places. If sensor temperature increases at the set point of the
GUI, then the relay is made to switch ON and OFF the heater (a lamp
load) to maintain the set temperature. In a SCADA system different types of sensors can be used for multiple control systems
XBEE Based Remote Monitoring of three Parameters on Transformer / Generator Health
This is a simple mini project for ece students
that is designed to protect the transformer by monitoring the
parameters of a generator/ transformer such as current, voltage and
temperature through the sensing devices like current transformer,
temperature sensor and potential transformer, respectively; and, to
monitor them from a remote location using Zigbee wireless communication.
Three sensors are fixed at the transmitter end to form a wireless
sensor networks projects with a certain range of each parameter. If
these parameters exceed at the fixed limits, then the transmitter sends a
signal to the receiving end by the XBEE transceiver. To switch a
warning load using a relay and alerts the user through a voice module.
XBEE Based Remote Monitoring of 3 Parameters on Transformer / Generator Health
This system is used to obtain the
parameters like voltage, current, temperature of a distribution
transformer through the measuring devices or sensors network such as
temperature sensor, potential and current transformers to transfer those
values to a remote location through Zigbee wireless technology.
This is a wireless sensor networks project where the sensor network is
fixed at the transmitter end with a certain range of each parameter. If
these parameters exceed the fixed limits, then the transmitter sends a
signal to the receiving end using the XBEE transceiver. To switch the
load by the relay and displays the message on the LCD.
Medical Applications Based on Wireless Sensor Networks
Nowadays, the health care system is
highly complex. The proposed system is designed to provide ultimate
solutions to the healthcare using the wireless sensor networks. This
proposed system is used to monitor the patient’s health by wirelessly
using RF technology.
It is a very tedious method. In this proposed system transmitting
module continuously reads patient’s body temperature through a digital
temperature sensor, displays it on the LCD screen and sends it to the
microcontroller which transmits the encoded serial data over the air by
RF (radio frequency) through an RF module.
Wireless Sensors Based System for Home Energy Consumption
A Wireless-sensor-network-based system
is used in high energy requiring home appliances like white goods,
audio/video devices, communication equipment, air conditioning systems,
heating and cooling system, which make our homes one of the most
critical areas for the impact of energy consumption in the natural
environment. Zigbee home automation is a simple mini project for ece studentswhich can be implemented for automatic control of home appliances
Mobile and Wireless Sensor Network based application to create a farm field monitoring and plant protection for sustainable crop production and poverty reduction
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) emerged from advancements in the areas of micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) technology, wireless communication, and digital electronics.
WSNs devices are small in size, low cost, and require low power to
work. The basic structure of WSN sensor nodes as identified is Shown in
fig
There are four main components that make
up a sensor node. The parts are mainly a sensing unit, a processing
unit, a transmission unit and a power unit. Depending on the type of
application, A sensor node may have additional parts such as a
situation, finding system, mobilizer and a power generator. The Sensing
unit usually takes the burden of sensing and gathering sensor data and
then passes data to the processing unit. The processing unit receives
the sensed data and processes it according to the Master of these
projects. A transmission unit connects the sensor not with a network.
The power unit supplies power required to run a sensor node.
Military Applications Based on Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks can be used by
the military for a number of purposes such as monitoring militant
activity in remote areas and Protecting the force . Being equipped with
appropriate sensors these networks can enable detection of enemy
movement, identification of the enemy force and analysis of their
movement and progress. The focus of this article is on the military
requirements for flexible wireless sensor networks.
Based on the main networking
characteristics and military use-cases, insight into specific military
requirements is given in order to facilitate the reader’s understanding
of the operation of these networks in the near to medium term (within
the next three to eight years). The article structures the evolution of
military sensor networking devices by identical-flying three generations
of sensors along with their capabilities.
These are the top innovative wireless sensor networks projects and final year projects for ece
students in different application areas. If you want any technical help
to implement these ideas in a practical approach or some more new electrical projects, you can leave us a comment in the comment section below.
