Custom wireless sensor network based on ZigBee

Wireless sensor networks have been very popular research field for the last couple of years. Many wireless sensor network researches are done on simulations and theoretical predictions instead of practical implementations, measurements and tests. With the interest of combining simulation results and theory with practical implementation we started building our own sensor network called "WiRsE". WiRsE is a Wireless Remote Sensor network based on ZigBee platform. Sensor network provides capability of temperature and moisture measurement in two flours of the Faculty building. Sensor Network can be accessed locally or remotely (over GSM phone). WiRsE is mainly designed for education demonstrations and testing different topology controls. In this article a minimum spanning tree algorithm for topology implementation is described.
