This report is discussed about the basic understanding and the progressing ofwork for the chosen topic, "Wireless Temperature Monitoring System". The objective ofthis project is to design the wireless monitoring system to monitor temperature in health care industry by using temperature sensor. This project is helping to solve problem that current system unable to deal with. In health care industry, temperature plays a big role to ensure product such as blood, medicine and clinical samples in good condition. However, by keeping manual logs for every store's temperature is really atedious work. It requires a lot of time and workers to continuously check the temperature of every roomthat storethe items. Thus, this device is really useful to reduce workload and time consumption. The temperature data will besending wirelessly to the respective staff for any action. In addition, using wireless is more practical instead of running wires or cabling system in such application because the wireless system can beimplemented ina big area and it is lower in cost. The challenges in this project are to select the suitable signal to be use in transmission and reception the data and also to design the most favorable alert system. The methodology used in this project includes constructing a simple circuit oftransmitter and receiver and troubleshooting will be done to ensure the circuit is working. Then, the programming will also beinvolved upon the completion of this project. Improvement and adjusting of this system will be done after the simple circuit demonstrates the expected output. The expected outcome from this project is to be able to demonstrate the wireless monitoring system that will be able to send the gathered data from the sensor to receiver and display the data at the base station.
