SMART IRRIGATION SYSTEM THROUGH WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS

Irrigation is one of the most powerful sources in India but it is hard for an individual person to monitor continuously and regularly. This is due to laziness of mankind. In order to make this irrigation easier our system comprises some changes in the usual irrigation system. The newly developed project controls water supply automatically in water crisis areas through moisture sensor. This paper covers the application of Sensor based Irrigation system through wireless sensor networks, which uses a renewable energy as a source. In this system Wireless Sensor Networks Plays a major role in Environment monitoring system and provides unmanned irrigation. WSN consists of moisture sensors, Energy harvesting systems, embedded controllers and uses Super capacitors as storage device.
