Smart autonomous agricultural system for improving yields in greenhouse based on sensor and IoT technology

Abstract

With a special focus on the now widespread Internet of Things (IoT) technology, it offers a convenient solution for smart agriculture. This paper will introduce a smart greenhouse monitoring and control data logger system as part of a smart farm. The system is based on: a group of built-in sensors, a microcontroller with a peripheral interface (PIC) as a core and a server system and a wireless Internet using the Global System of Mobile Telecommunications (GSM) module with General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) as a communication protocol. It is possible to implement a smart agricultural service, in which the realized smart data logger system could be implemented, which enables automatic control of the greenhouse at the farm.
