This document presents a network-based wireless system for remotely monitoring lead acid batteries. It introduces the proposed scheme which uses IP networks to monitor batteries in real-time and securely from mobile or fixed systems. The system collects data from batteries using I2C, ADC and UART protocols, frames it for transmission, and sends it periodically over Wi-Fi networks. Experimental results demonstrate proof-of-concept and the authors conclude it is a new dedicated monitoring system, while future work involves integrating an Android GUI and industry testing.
