An Embedded Device Utilising GPRS for Communications

Overview The task of creating a cheap and flexible device for supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) is the goal of this paper. By using a very simple and cheap microprocessor, and relying on an existing communications infrastructure - the mobile phone network, the task was accomplished to the point that a functional system now exists. GPRS provides a relatively cheap, continuous connection to the Internet, and a web interface hides complexity from the user.
