Abstract: AMBAT, ELVIE A., ARELLANO, JOHN JOSEPH M., DE SAGUN, ERVIN R., and R- JAY A. MARQUEZ. Design and Implementation of a Wireless Weather Station. Undergraduate Design Project. Bachelor of Science in Electronics and Communications Engineering and Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2004. Adviser: Engr. Michael T. Costa The Design and Implementation of a Wireless Weather Station was constructed at Kayquit, Indang, Cavite. The design was tested and evaluated at the Coffee Nursery and Genetic Resource Center, Central Experiment Station, CvSU, Indang, Cavite. The main objective of the study was to design and implement a wireless weather station. Specifically, it aimed to: construct a remote station that can measure temperature, humidity and pressure; design a base station that can retrieve information transmitted by the remote station; interface the base station to the PC to display the retrieved information from the remote station; create a software that would interface the whole system; design and construct an antenna, which served as a transmitter and receiver of data; design and construct a power supply in remote station and base station circuit; use a solar power cell in the remote station; conduct testing and evaluation of the station; and conduct cost computation of the system. The design project was basically composed of base station and remote station including power supply, RF circuit, micro-controller, oscillator circuit, solar panel and antenna and the software. The microcontroller served as the brain of the system for it controlled the system's operation. The temperature, humidity and pressure sensor were located inside the remote station. The measured temperature, humidity and pressure were transmitted to the base station. The PC displayed the received data from the remote station. Based on the obtained results. the authors recommend the following: modify the protocol between the base station and remote station; addition of anemometer, rain gauge and solar parameters, design an additional amplifier circuit to extend the maximum range of transmitting information, conduct further evaluation of the system in different climatic conditions and increase the storage capacity of the whole system.
