Wireless System for the Control and Real Time Monitoring of Agricultural Areas of Arenillas Canton in Ecuador

Abstract:

This document describes the design and implementation of a wireless sensor network applied in the conventional agriculture of Arenillas Canton, Province of El Oro-Ecuador; this monitoring and control system is capable of measuring and transmitting the collected values of temperature, soil moisture, wind speed, radiation and detection of pests, will also be coupled an automatic sprinkler irrigation system, where its operation is based mainly on the comparison of the data obtained by each of the sensors that are located throughout the crop obtaining greater efficiency and less waste of water and supplies. The topology and the communication architecture between the coordinating nodes, router nodes and sensor nodes is based on the ZigBee standard, with this system to be implemented, it will allow us to efficiently use the natural resources that surround us such as the earth, water, sun, wind and rain that combined with inputs (fertilizers) would help us improve the reliability, sustainability, intensification, green growth and sustainable development of agricultural production.
