Abstract
This project presents a battery vandalism alert system on basestations, it’s a GSM-based system
that monitors basestation batteries and their power to ensure that the network is fully powered. In
case of any significant change in dc power at the basestations, a report is delivered via sms to
facilitate immediate action. The design and implementations of this system is divided into to two
parts, the hardware and software.
In the hardware part a circuit simulation was first design using Proteus software then later a
system prototype is designed using several electronic components
In the software part, the code for this project was written in C-language by using MPLab IDE
and the code (.HEX file) was uploaded into the PIC 16F877A microcontroller using PICkit 2
Description
