In this paper 1 , we present the architecture, design, and simulation of an intelligent system for Temperature Monitoring used in metropolitan heating. The system consists of several TelosB-compatible motes, a Nokia uSDCard, and a smart phone. We use TelosB Motes to collect temperature data, and to transport the data to the smart phone. The uSDCard, as the middle layer, connects the smart phone with the ZigBee compatible devices. The smart phone, as the terminal, processes data and manages the TelosB Motes. We use the smart phone as the final terminal because it has a rich set of user interfaces and has access to various kinds of networks, allowing our system to be extended more easily and more user-friendly. In real scenes, our system can reduce the temperature reading fluctuation, and ultimately save the energy consumption for heating companies, providing a better living environment for indoor users.

With the development of Internet of Things (IoT), bridging wireless sensor netw orks (WSNs) with other netw orks has become importan t. We divide bridging sol utions into tw o categ ories: the hardw are sol utions and the middlew are sol utions. The hardw are sol utions have both low pow er short distance wireless interf aces and other types of transmission interf aces, e.g. GPRS, 3G/4G, via hardw are implemen tations, which is more stable and applicable for the depl oyed sensor netw orks. In the middlew are sol utions, the whole system processes appropria te protocol conversion, and independence of hardw are, making it easier to be reused in di fferen t applica tions and netw orks. This paper brief y presen ts the implemen tation details and key poin ts of each solution. Particularly, we deriv e the most appropria te situa tion for each solution from our comparisons and discussions in terms of ev al ua tion applied to di fferen t criteria.

In this poster, we present the architecture, design, and the preliminary simulation results of a system for Metropolitan Heating, via intelligent temperature monitoring. The system consists of several TelosB-compatible motes, a Nokia uSDCard, and a smart phone. In real scenes, our system can reduce the reading fluctuation, and ultimately save the energy consumed for heating company, achieving a better living condition in the houses.
