Energy Efficient Smart Irrigation System Based on 6LoWPAN

摘要

Smart irrigation system requires long-distance transmission, low power consumption and accurate data analysis for precise irrigation and water conservation. In this paper, we designed the long-distance transmission and low power consumption smart irrigation node with SoC CC1310, and the system applies 6LoWPAN in smart irrigation system to implement low power networking and transmission. This paper also proposes an improved fuzzy algorithm for smart irrigation, which determines irrigation strategies. The software design of smart irrigation node is based on Contiki operating system, and we compared the shortest path networking method with the default networking method ETX in Contiki, when the amount of nodes increase to 50, the shortest path networking method could save 10% energy compare with the ETX method.
