B. Introduction
1. Why researcher needs to do it? What motivated researcher to do it? Temperature is a common variation, and temperature monitoring is also an important and basic part of industry field. The traditional temperature monitor system often needs a master node connected with monitor computer and some slave nodes distributed in the environment. So researcher needs to replace and develop the traditional temperature monitor system for better performance with using Zigbee technology.
2. What problem exist that researcher wants to solve? The traditional temperature monitor system has the rate of change in the t system is not fast, which leads to the data transmitting rate is slow, and data quantity is not large, therefore, the temperature monitoring system could adopt wireless transmission technology. Because the traditional temperature monitor system often needs a master node connected with monitor computer and some slave nodes distributed in the environment. And master and slave nodes are connected by such as RS485/RS232 cable to form a monitoring network, data or signal are transmitted between them.

3. What a Hypothesis if research is success? ZigBee is better technology then current. ZigBee is an open specification that enables low power consumption, low cost and low data rate (250kb/s) for short-range wireless connections between various electronic devices, which is a proper scheme applicated in temperature monitoring system. The Bee standard is built on top of the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, which defines the physical and MAC layer for low-rate wireless personal area networks. It also supports functionalities for channel selection, link quality estimation, energy measurement and clear channel assessment. ZigBee also defines the NWK layer, the application layer and the security layer which are used to form network and ensure security of wireless data transmission. Each ZigBee network only has a COORDINATOR, which acts as the administrator and takes care of organization of the network. Only the FFD defines the full ZigBee functionality and can become a network COORDINATOR. The RFD has limited resources and does not allow some advanced functions (e.g. routing). All main characters of ZigBee are analyzed above; it is suitable for forming an industrial wireless temperature monitoring system.
