Wireless Control System for Plug Seedlings Environment Based on GPRS

Abstract:

In order to realize remote monitoring and control for the environment of plug seeding, the environment control system based on GPRS was developed. The systems includes environment sensors, GPRS remote terminal unit (RTU), control unit and WEB server. Through the GPRS network to transmission the environment parameters, and upload data via the Internet to the web server. According the environment parameters, the server get the optimal control scheme based on model. Then transmit the control scheme to the remote terminal unit (RTU) through the GPRS network. The RTU get the control scheme, the control unit send the control signal to the control equipment. This system can achieve real-time control of environment parameters for plug seedling.
