Architecture of Granary Monitoring System Based on Wireless Sensor Network

Article Preview

Abstract:

Many research projects are involved in environmental monitoring in recent years. However, most existing studies are interest in the outdoor natural environment monitoring. Few of them focus on the indoor monitoring. This paper presents a system based on wireless sensor network (WSN) for granary monitoring including grain temperature and grain moisture content monitoring. To our best knowledge, this is the first time to provide a system based on WSN, which can measure the grain moisture content on line. The overall system architecture is described in detail. Besides, the wireless communication protocol and the network deployment are introduced.
