Implementation of Trilateration Based Localization Approach for Tree Monitoring in IoT

The Internet of thing is widely used term as progression in innovation. It is a system of physical devices embedded with electronic motes, sensors, and software which empower these devices to exchange data through the internet. Moreover, to localize and monitor environmental conditions on the real time basis system may use Global Positioning System framework but it expends more energy as such system compromise resource constrain devices. In this research paper, we have concentrated to develop Global Positioning System independent localization algorithm for real-time tree monitoring. Our proposed algorithm comprises of two sub-algorithms which are Received Signal Strength Indicator and trilateration. Localization uses routing of data and it consumes more energy. Hence, we require energy efficient routing protocol. To fulfill the purpose we used (RPL) Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks routing protocol which is developed specially for low power and lossy networks. Simulation of the whole system is carried out In Contiki-OS with the help of built-in COOJA simulator.
