Abstract :
Monitoring and control of greenhouse environment play an important role in greenhouse production and management. To monitor the greenhouse environment parameters effectively, it is necessary to design a measurement and control system. This paper presents a control design of wireless sensor network system based on radio frequency (RF) transceiver for greenhouse, which consists of some sensor nodes placed in the greenhouse and a master node connected to upper PC in the monitoring center. The sensor nodes collect signals of greenhouse temperature, humidity, light and CO2, control the actuators, and transmit the data through the wireless RF transceiver; the master node receives the data through the RF transceiver and sends the data to the upper PC for real-time monitoring. Result shows that the system is practical and reliable, and has wide application in the future.
