Enhanced Data Transmission Platform in Smart Farms

Published: 05 May 2019 Publication History

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging technology that incentivizes industry, agriculture and academia to develop smart platforms. One of the areas where IoT is being developed is in smart farms. IoT in agricultural systems helps farmers collect and transfer important environmental parameters in an automated way, which may lead to increased productivity and reduced labor costs. Power for distributed IoT nodes in a field is usually supplied by batteries, which drain during data transmission, and battery consumption is increased if there is a need for data retransmission in the case of packets loss. Signal strength is the main parameter for pairing nodes in data transmission, however, considerations involving CPU usage and battery life will keep IoT platform operating longer and may reduce the number of dropped packets. In this paper, we study the impact of CPU usage on packet loss and battery drain during data transmission. Our study proposes a design for an efficient data transmission platform for smart farms that takes into consideration CPU usage, signal strength and battery life.
