Aiming at the shortcomings that the preparatory work was tedious and the mobility was poor in the current shock wave testing methods such as lead electrical measurement method and storage test method, in this paper, a shock wave testing system scheme was proposed based on Android and WiFi. The system uses Android smart phone as the display, processing tool and recorder control terminal of shock wave data waveforms, and the CC3200 chip (TI) is embedded into the memory recorder as WiFi hot spot. The smart phone connects the hot spot, then remotely controls the recorder and reads the data in the recorder through the UDP protocol of Socket mechanism, finally the phone is used to calculate, process and analyze the shock wave data. Multiple tests show that the Android smart phone can accurately control the recorder and read data at high speed in the range of up to 110 m, and the system runs steadily. The system greatly reduces the preparatory work of the test, and it is convenient, fast and strongly practical.
