Smart irrigation system for outdoor environment using Tiny OS

In recent years wireless sensor networks are widely used in many automated system like vehicle monitoring, heavy duty plants, robotic control etc. one of the best automated systems is the smart irrigation system. In this paper we have proposed a simple and cost effective smart irrigation system. Our system deploys wireless sensor motes from a wireless sensor network. The system is modelled in outdoor environment using TINY OS based IRIS motes to measure the moisture level of the paddy field and to set the threshold value. MDA100CB sensor motes can measure up to −40°c to 80°c and operate at a range between 1.6 to 2.7 volts. The proposed scheme uses data visualization and monitoring tool MOTEVIEW 2.0f developed by crossbow technology. Proposed scheme is easy to implement and requires less number of IRIS sensor motes as compared to other manual operating people.
