  • Abstract
    This paper provides basic guidelines for deploying Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) in Agriculture, and more specifically in applications requiring crop monitoring. Firstly, it reviews the main components that existing WSN applications use, namely node platforms, operating systems (OSs), power supply, etc. Based on these data, a generic guide is proposed discussing basic considerations for deploying WSNs in applications relevant to agriculture.
