Design of a wireless sensor network for greenhouses temperature analysis

Abstract

This work presents a wireless sensor network designed with fifteen temperature sensors to monitor this parameter variation inside a greenhouse, where all temperature values were transmitted by radio to a distant computer that records it into a database that allows a detailed temperature analysis. The results showed that the network operated efficiently in the greenhouse and allows more accurate definitions relative to the optimal sensor locations for extreme temperatures verification, and also allow a precise description of temperature variation over time.
