Abstract

At present, wireless sensor network (WSN) is mainly used in some applications with a few sensor nodes and poor expansibility, which make it difficult to change the number of nodes in the WSN and the number of sensors in the node flexibly. In this paper, a new communication protocol for greenhouse monitoring system with multifunctional nodes is designed based on zigbee WSN technology to overcome the shortages above. The protocol establishes and maintains the routing table dynamically. And the bit mask method is used to mark devices and sensors which can access multiple devices in one packet. Through the elaborately designed protocol, different nodes can join the system automatically. Users can scan the data, capture images, and control the devices through browser on the Internet. The experiment results show that this greenhouse monitoring system based on WSN has perfect transportability and expansibility.
