Monitoramento remoto de um sistema de geração eólica com comunicação wireless via ZIGBEE

Abstract

This work proposes a remote monitoring system of a WECS (Wind Energy Conversion System) through a wireless network using Zigbee technology, aiming, based on local wind samples, the analysis of the generated power rating on a wind turbine. Because of the big data transmission distance using a wireless network becomes highly recommended, besides that, the forecast of a network expansion and the use of new sensors would be easily implemented allowing other variables of the WECS system to be supervised. Making use of Zigbee modules, will be presented the network structure and its configuration schema. The system development for each node and the corresponding results are described and commented in each reference chapter. In the conclusion, an explanation of the new WPAN network nodes and every obtained value in the access point is presented, being these results properly discussed, as well as the next steps for the project implementation in the wind power system which is located near the weir Santo Anastácio, at Univesidade Federal do Ceará (UFC), campus Pici.
