A wireless distributed monitoring terminal was designed
with embedded Linux used on the basis of ARM board, and an application program
was developed for data collection, processing and transmission. Data were
collected from the surrounding environment and transmitted to a server via WLAN
in the form of Extensible Markup Language (XML) stream, so the terminal had
good flexibility to be compatible with different sensors, network devices and
information systems from multiple manufacturers.
