With advance of our human beings science and technology and enhance of the living standards, more and more people have addressed higher requirements on the environmental conditions in a hospital, therefore, the traditional and no-intelligent monitoring devices are being replaced by the automated and networked monitoring systems gradually. In this case, application of the wireless sensor network just fits this need. This paper proposes the Tianjin First Central Hospital indoor environment monitoring & control system of distributed acquisition and execution, and centralized management by focusing on the needs for the technical indicators of the hospital indoor environment. During design of the system, an universal design concept was put forward, and also a non-standard communication protocol for the wireless sensor network designed independently in combination with the OSI open standard. In this paper, realization of the communication protocol among the nodes with embedded software and the operation mechanism of the modes themselves are discussed, also a console panel has been developed for the data center. Several software design algorithms are proposed with respect to the network layout. This paper also describes the test platform of the Tianjin First Central Hospital indoor environment monitoring & control system established with the network components designed, and provides the test and verification results, including the monitored data of the various gases, corresponding automatic control functions, and underlay BER analysis. The results show that this system can basically realize automatic monitoring on the Tianjin First Central Hospital indoor environment. At present, the sensitive gases include CO, CO2, O2, NH3 and formaldehyde, sensitive environments temperature, humidity and light intensity, and controlled targets ventilation and lighting. This paper offers an optional solution for environment monitoring and has certain theoretical value and engineering significance.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have gained worldwide attention in recent years, particularly with the rapid progress in Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology which has facilitated the development of smart sensors. These sensors are small, with limited processing and computing resources, and they are inexpensive compared to traditional sensors. These sensor nodes can sense, measure, and gather information from the environment and, based on some local decision process, they can transmit the sensed data to the user. WSNs are large networks made of a numerous number of sensor nodes with sensing, computation, and wireless communication capabilities. In present work we provide a brief summary of the state-ofthe- art in wireless sensor networks, investigate the feasibility of indoor environment monitoring using crossbow wireless sensor nodes. Here we used nesC programming language and TinyOS operating system for programming Crossbow sensor nodes and LabVIEW GUI is used for displaying different indoor environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity and light acquired from different Wireless sensor nodes. These sensor readings can help building administrators to monitor the physical conditions of the environment in a building for creating optimized energy usage.
