Design of the Monitoring System for Valuable Chinese Herbal Medicine Growth Based on CC2430

Article Preview

Abstract:

Due to lots of the precious Chinese herbal medicines are on the edge of exhaustion, the paper presents a real-time monitoring system based wireless sensor network in order to protect Chinese herbal medicines and do artificial cultivation. Temperature, humidity and light condition is very important to the growth of Chinese herbal medicines growth. How to scientifically adjust the environment parameters is essential, it’s benefit for Chinese herbal medicines to improve the yield and quality. According to herbal medicines environmental characteristics, sensor networks were designed which the data can be accurately collected so as to track and monitor environmental factors of grow influence in real time or continuous. The system gives the hardware design of wireless sensor node and software implementations. Wireless sensor network nodes communication circuit was designed by CC2430, monitor environmental parameters with air temperature and humidity sensors and light intensity sensors. Experimental results show: the sensor network monitoring system can make the artificial cultivation of the medicines more modern, scientific and objective.
