Wind energy is the most widely used natural resource for the production of electrical energy. Presently wind energy is used to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide.During the transmission ofdata from one node to another, node disturbance occurs. To avoid these disturbances, to monitor and to detect the fault, CAN protocol is used. CAN is a Message based protocol designed especially forAutomotive, later Aerospace, Industrial automation and Medical equipment’s. CAN interfacemodule is used to communicate the monitored parameters between the wind turbine and thecontrol centre. Earlier, the vibration analysis, vibration signals produced by the rotating components in Wind Turbine’s whose current health conditions need to be diagnosed are commonly analyzed either by broad band based methods or spectral line analysis methods. In our paper we declare the system with ARM and CAN protocol to monitor and diagnose the problems in the wind turbine application. The project deals with the data transmission between two units in the exact time without any disturbance. The data transmission time is increased with the CAN protocol. ARM core1 runs with CAN and LPC2148 as wind turbine unit to which sensors are connected and ARM core2 as Fault diagnose and monitoring section. Data acquisition node collects the sensor data through CAN protocol. The basic view of this technique is to reduce the possibility of fault diagnosis and increase the monitoring of wind turbine.
