Abstract：To solve such problems as high cost, low automation and not-easy installation of the existing landslide monitoring system, a wireless remote landslide monitoring system was designed. In this system, landslide information was obtained by ZigBee location technology rather than landslide sensors and monitoring data was transmitted by General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) to the data center. Therefore, the landslide could be monitored remotely and automatically. The design plan of the system structure, software and hardware based on the improved Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) location algorithm were introduced. A simulation experiment was done with a result of 1.39m error and 0.5m error fluctuation by OPENT and Matlab in 10m×15m testing area. The research and experimental results show that this system can reduce the cost of landslide monitoring system significantly without any sensors, and it has the properties of low cost, simple implementation procedure and high automation level.
