DEVELOPMENT OF WEB BASED REMOTE MONITORING SYSTEM FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS USING MATLAB WEB SERVER

Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are used in various fields such as military and medical applications, detection of natural disasters, building security systems and monitoring the field of automated activity in the factories. In these application fields, there are some requirements for the wireless sensor nodes to be monitored remotely and for their collected data to be processed. In the present study, in order to provide these requirements a web-based remote monitoring system is implemented using MATLAB WEB server developed for wireless sensor networks. The implemented system provides several features such as recording, displaying and analyzing collected data (temperature, moisture, pressure, light etc.) from sensorh nodes simultaneously by using the MATLAB program and the server's components. In addition, users can easily access the developed system using any device (computer, PDA, cell phone etc.) connected to the internet without the use of any means other than a web browser.
