Greenhouse Monitoring System Based on ZigBee and GPRS

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to reduce costs and improve crop yields effectively, a greenhouse environment monitoring system based on ZigBee and GPRS technology is designed. In the system, ZigBee wireless sensor module is used for data acquisition of soil moisture, precipitation, nitrogen concentration, temperature and barometric pressure data etc. The information is sent to a remote monitoring center through GPRS, Instructions is regulated and take corresponding measures according to the received information. The system can collect and monitor the parameters of the greenhouse environment at a real time. This has important implications for the development of agriculture automation and agricultural production levels.
