Environmental Monitoring Systems Using Wireless Sensor Networks: An Overview

Journal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2020

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) consist of wirelessly sensor nodes that set with radio interface which they communicated via it with one another to form a network. Sensor nodes enable environment monitoring and data processing. The advance in both wireless sensor and data processing technologies gives environmental management systems the ability to monitor real-time remote location. Developments in sensor's technologies like embedded systems, distributed processing, Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS), wireless communications, and wireless sensor applications have contributed the transformation in WSNs recently. WSNs have improved work performance and they have been used in many fields especially for survey and monitoring in environmental monitoring systems (EMSs). This paper aims to introduce a brief overview of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) that are used in the applications of environmental monitoring systems (EMSs).

Design and implementation of wireless sensor network for environmental monitoring

International journal of health sciences

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are being developed in the agriculture and weather station sectors to monitor and manage a number of objects. Sensor network hardware platforms are low-power embedded systems featuring a variety of sensors, such as on-board sensors and analogue I/O ports for adding sensors. The design of genuine environmental monitoring and communication systems is greatly aided by the creation of a WSN. A WSN is a collection of sensors that are geographically spread and specialized for monitoring and recording environmental variables and storing the findings in a central location. Limited power consumption as sensor nodes works on batteries, Nodes are mobile opposed to conventional wires, Usage in harsh environment, Nodes can be deployed in any fashion over an area, Easy to use and multi-layer design operation these are the main characteristics of WSN. Limits imposed on the energy storage device by their applications and deployment settings are less relevant to WSN en...

Chan, F., Marinova, D. and Anderssen, R.S. (eds) MODSIM2011, 19th International Congress on Modelling and Simulation., 2011

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technology is becoming increasingly popular, particularly as applied to a variety of monitoring and tracking applications. Recent developments and advances in both information processing and wireless sensor technologies have provided environmental management systems with capabilities of real-time remote location monitoring. WSN enables monitoring and management of a large set of environmental data including climatic, atmospheric, plant and soil parameters that influence cropland growing environments. Real-time sensor data collection is used for accurate illustrations of current conditions while forecasting future conditions and risks. The real time information from the fields can provide a solid base for farmers to adjust strategies at any time. Instead of making decisions based in some hypothetical average condition, which may not exist anywhere in the reality, a precision farming approach recognizes differences and adjusts management actions accordingly.

A REVIEW: ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING APPLICATIONS USING WIRELESS SENSOR TECHNOLOGY

With a broad research on wireless sensor technology, the sensor network has proven its significance in today's modernizing world. In this paper a wireless sensor network system is proposed with open source hardware and software platform i.e Raspberry pi microcomputer which act as a base station, zigbee and a graphical user interface for user friendly application. This system is highly effective both in terms of number of sensors and the type of the sensors. This system provides low cost and feasible solution in the area of environmental monitoring application. A detail review of how actually this system will work and the expected outcome based on theoretical basis are presented in this paper. Raspberry pi is cheap, small, hackable computer linux board. Comparative analysis shows that the performances with wireless sensor nodes using raspberry pi has more successful usage in sensor network domain and remains inexpensive throughout.

A Survey on Environment Monitoring using Sensor Networks

2020

Environment monitoring is one of the most important application of Robotic Sensor Network (RSN) and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). Monitoring of various factors is required for different kinds of environments. These networks have a capability of measuring different parameters such as temperature, humidity and air quality. They also process, transmit, analyze and upload the data over the internet for future use and study. It can automate the system be giving commands based on the data measured for any system to get actuated. Monitoring such parameters using sensor networks helps the humans to avoid entering hazardous areas and can help the farmers to measure required parameters on the field from a remote location. A study and comparison of applications of RSN and WSN in different environments is presented in this review paper which can help make the life of such people easy.

Development of Wireless Sensor Network Technology for Environmental Monitoring

International Journal of Recent Trends in Engineering and Research

This project is concerned with the application of wireless sensor network (WSN) technology to long-duration and large-scale environmental monitoring. The holy grail is a system that can be deployed and operated by domain specialists not engineers, but this remains some distance into the future. We present our views as to why this field has progressed less quickly than many envisaged it would over a decade ago. We use real examples taken from our own work in this field to illustrate the technological difficulties and challenges that are entailed in meeting end-user requirements for information gathering systems. Reliability and productivity are key concerns and influence the design choices for system hardware and software. We conclude with a discussion of long-term challenges for WSN technology in environmental monitoring and outline our vision of the future.

Environmental Data Monitoring Using Wireless Sensor Network and Transmission of Data Via Internet

International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology, 2014

The objective of this paper is to effective monitoring of environment by using Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) and the collection of data will be transmitted through the server through Internet. Before that it was done manually which is not accurate and also the immediate updation of information is not so easy. In our proposed system by using wireless sensor network data gathering is easy since WSN technology is used. By incorporating various sensors for sensing different parameters and by placing those sensors at different locations this can be achieved .Two major sensors such as river flood detection sensor for monitoring of water level variation in rivers and UV-ray detection sensor for the radiation measurement of the field. The detected level of variation will be processed and transfer through server. Both the sensor measures the level of variation and if it exceeds the threshold level the information will be transfer through internet as well as alert through mobile and also gives alarm to the nearby field areas. It may provide good security for all the living being during the period of disaster
