Application Cases of ZigBee Transparent Transmission in Industrial Sensors

Zigbee Transparent Transmission Enables Rapid Data Acquisition

Zigbee has a transmission range of approximately 10 meters, operates in the 2.4GHz and 900MHz frequency bands, with a transmission rate of 10~250Kbps. This type of application facilitates quick data acquisition for users and is used in smart grids, intelligent transportation, smart homes, finance, mobile POS terminals, supply chain automation, industrial automation, smart buildings, fire protection, public safety, environmental protection, meteorology, digital healthcare, remote sensing, agriculture, forestry, water management, coal mining, petrochemicals, and other fields.

The Zigbee transparent transmission module developed by West-HN Technology allows users to attach an electronic tag module to their own devices, enabling easy transmission of tag IDs. It also facilitates device search and positioning. By establishing a temporary data transmission channel, users can remotely download device-collected data and wirelessly send device control commands.

Practical Case

Urban gas pipeline networks require regular inspection of data related to underground pipelines. Previously, maintenance personnel had to descend through manholes to access instrument data. Networks like NB-IoT cannot penetrate ground obstructions, making effective data acquisition impossible. Therefore, users embedded the ZIGBEE transparent transmission module into the original instrument equipment. Operations personnel only need to carry a card reader for inspections to locate nearby instruments. They can then send commands to activate the ZIGBEE module to start the detection instrument, obtain real-time information, and transmit the data to the handheld device via the ZIGBEE transparent transmission function.
