Volume based Drip Irrigation control using WSN &LabVIEW

摘要

In past few years many reformations has been taken place in the field of agriculture. Among the vital parameters of agriculture, irrigation is the most significant parameter whose control leads to well and efficient growth of crops. This paper describes the development of the system which provides adequate distribution of water using wireless sensor networking in field. The intercommunication of the devices within the field would be carried out by Zigbee module. The whole field operation would be monitored and controlled by PC based GUI designed in LabVIEW. LabVlEW also provides Real time data storage and data manipulation. In the field end device control operation would be carried out by ZigBee interfaced to Arduino. Arduino controls SOV's throughRelay Drive Circuit. The system model is precisely control required amount of water for irrigation, store automatic data in database and can access database through internet protocol.
