Abstract:
Manpower shortages is a severe challenge in many agricultural countries when it comes to the development of modern agriculture. Irrigation is one of the most important aspects of farming. However, because it requires a lot of personnel, new technologies must be introduced to cut labor costs and make the planting process automatic and intelligent in order to boost crop output while lowering costs. In this article, we employ LoRaP2P, an improvement of the LoRaWAN protocol, to realize remote mass control of water valves, so that farmers can easily achieve mass irrigation without manual operation. The LoRaP2P protocol is employed to build and develop a water valve control system for precise irrigation. The system combines the long-range, low-power advantages of LoRa with the low latency characteristics of p2p mode to control water valves. Experimental results show the proposed irrigation system features long-distance communication, low power consumption, low latency, and high reliability, making it perfect for modern agriculture. Furthermore, the system’s simplicity makes it straightforward to use via a web platform or mobile app, removing the need of learning.
