Abstract

This paper demonstrates a low-cost, yet reliable, weather monitoring system. The proposed system has three sensors that measure the temperature, wind speed and wind direction, respectively. The analogue outputs of the sensors converted to digital signals and further processed by a microcontroller. Using easily-available components and simple circuitry, the system should be beneficial in providing a portable and low-cost weather monitoring using wireless communication system. Until now these parameters in the meteorological department in Jordan are transmitted by telephone. In this system we developed an automated system which continuously measures weather parameter and transmit them to the main meteorological station. In future we are planning to have more substations which can interact with main station.
