Agriculture internet of things: AG-IoT
Résumé
The Internet of Things (IoT) for agriculture is a rapidly emerging technology where seamless connected sensors device make it possible to monitor and control crop parameters to get quality and quantity of food. This research proposes a new dynamic clustering and data gathering scheme for harnessing the IoT in agriculture. In this paper, an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is used to locate and assist ground IoT devices to form themselves in cluster formation then establishes a reliable uplink communication backbone for data transmission. Use of multifrequency, multi power transmission, and mobile sink make it possible to reduce power utilization of IoT devices as much as possible. The proposed scheme is evaluated by using simulation models and practical experiments. It is found working outclass as compare to all existing systems.
