The main tasks of a Wireless Sensor Network
(WSN) are data collection from its nodes and communication
of this data to the base station (BS). The protocols used for
communication among the WSN nodes and between the WSN
and the BS, must consider the resource constraints of nodes,
battery energy, computational capabilities and memory. The
WSN applications involve unattended operation of the network
over an extended period of time. In order to extend the lifetime
of a WSN, efficient routing protocols need to be adopted. The
proposed low power routing protocol based on tree-based
network structure reliably forwards the measured data towards
the BS using TDMA. An energy consumption analysis of the
WSN making use of this protocol is also carried out. It is
found that the network is energy efficient with an average
duty cycle of 0:7% for the WSN nodes. The OmNET++

The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system.

ABSTRACT
The Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are well suited
for continuous environmental data acquisition for
environment temperature representation. This paper
presents the functional design and implementation of
a complete WSN platform that can be used for a
range of continuous environmental temperature
monitoring in a forest area. The application
requirements for low cost, high number of sensors,
fast deployment, long life-time, low maintenance,
and high quality of service are considered in the
specification and design of the platform and of all its
components. Low-effort platform reuse is also
considered starting from the specifications and at all
design levels for a wide array of related monitoring
applications.

I.INTRODUCTION
More than a decade ago, the parameters of
an environment was coined in which computers were
able to access data about objects and environment
without human interaction. It was aimed to
complement human-entered data that was seen as a
limiting factor to acquisition accuracy, pervasiveness
and cost.
Two technologies were traditionally
considered: the radio-frequency identification
(RFID) and the wireless sensor networks (WSN).
While the former is well established for low-cost
identification and tracking, WSNs bring forest
applications richer capabilities for both sensing
and actuation. In fact, WSN solutions already
cover a very broad range of applications, and
research and technology advances continuously
expand their application field. This trend also
increases their use in many applications for
versatile low-cost data acquisition and actuation.
However, the sheer diversity of WSN
applications makes increasingly difficult to define
“typical” requirements for their hardware and
software. In fact, the generic WSN components
often need to be adapted to specific application

2. requirements and environmental conditions.
These ad hoc changes tend to adversely impact
the overall solution complexity, cost, reliability,
and maintenance that in turn effectively curtail
WSN adoption, including their use in forest
applications.
To address these issues, the reusable
WSN platforms receive a growing interest.
These platforms are typically optimized by
leveraging knowledge of the target class of
applications (e.g., domain, WSN devices,
phenomena of interest) to improve key WSN
application parameters, such as cost,
productivity, reliability, interoperability,
maintenance.
Among the forest application domains,
the environmental/earth monitoring receives a
growing interest as environmental technology
becomes a key field of sustainable growth
worldwide Of these, the open nature
environmental monitoring is especially
challenging because of, e.g., the typically harsh
operating conditions and difficulty and cost of
physical access to the field for deployment and
maintenance.
The generic WSN platforms can be
used with good results in a broad class of forest
monitoring applications. However, many
applications (e.g., those in open nature) may
have stringent requirements, such as very low
cost, large number of nodes, long unattended
service time, ease of deployment, low
maintenance, which make these generic WSN
platforms less suited.
This paper presents the application
requirements, the exploration of possible
solutions, and the practical realization of a full-
custom, reusable WSN platform suitable for use
in low cost long-term environmental monitoring
applications. For a consistent design, the main
application requirements for low cost, fast-
deployment of large number of sensors, and
reliable and long unattended service are
considered at all design levels. Various trade-
offs between platform features and
specifications are identified, analyzed, and used
to guide the design decisions. The development

3. methodology presented can be reused for
platform design for other application domains, or
evolutions of this platform.
Also, the platform requirements of
flexibility and reusability for a broad range of
related applications was considered from the
start. A real-life application, representative for
this application domain, was selected and used
as reference throughout the design process.
Finally, the experimental results show that the
platform implementation satisfies the
specifications.
II.RELATED WORK
WSN environmental monitoring includes
both indoor and outdoor applications. The later
can fall in the city deployment category (e.g., for
traffic, lighting, or pollution monitoring) or the
open nature category (e.g., chemical hazard,
earthquake and flooding detection, volcano and
habitat monitoring, weather forecasting,
precision agriculture). The reliability of any
outdoor deployment can be challenged by
extreme climatic conditions, but for the open
nature the maintenance can be also very difficult
and costly.
These considerations make the open
nature one of the toughest application fields for
large scale WSN environmental monitoring, and
the Internet of things applications requirements
for low cost, high service availability and low
maintenance further increase their design
challenges.
To be cost-effective, the sensor nodes
often operate on very restricted energy reserves.
Premature energy depletion can severely limit
the network service and needs to be addressed
considering the application requirements for
cost, deployment, maintenance, and service
availability. These become even more important
for monitoring applications in extreme climatic
environments, such as glaciers, permafrost’s or
volcanoes. The understanding of such
environments can considerably benefit from
continuous long-term monitoring, but their
conditions emphasize the issues of node energy
management, mechanical and communication
hardening, size, weight, and deployment
procedures.

4. Open nature deployments and
communication protocol developments and
experiments show that WSN optimization for
reliable operation is time-consuming and costly.
It hardly satisfies the forest applications
requirements for long-term, low-cost and reliable
service, unless reusable hardware and software
platforms are available, including flexible
Internet-enabled servers to collect and process
the field data for environment applications.
This paper contributions of interest for
researchers in the WSN field can be
summarized as: 1) detailed specifications for
a demanding WSN application for long-term
environmental monitoring that can be used to
analyze the optimality of novel WSN solutions,
2) specifications, design considerations, and
experimental results for platform components
that suit the typical application requirements of
low cost, high reliability, and long service time,
3) specifications and design considerations for
platform reusability for a wide range of
distributed event-based environmental
monitoring applications, and 4) a fast and
configuration-free field deployment procedure
suitable for large scale application deployments.

III.ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING
REQUIREMENTS
WSN data acquisition for environmental
monitoring applications is challenging, especially for
open nature fields. These may require large sensor
numbers, low cost, high reliability, and long
maintenance-free operation. At the same time, the
nodes can be exposed to variable and extreme
climatic conditions, the deployment field may be
costly and difficult to reach, and the field devices
weight, size, and ruggedness can matter, e.g., if they
are transported in backpacks.
Most of these requirements and conditions
can be found in the well-known application of
wildfire monitoring using in situ distributed
temperature sensors and on-board data processing. In

5. its simplest event-driven form, each sensor node
performs periodic measurements of the surrounding
air temperature and sends alerts to surveillance
personnel if they exceed a threshold. Fig. 1 shows a
typical deployment pattern of the sensor nodes that
achieves a good field coverage. For a fast response
time, the coverage of even small areas requires a
large number of sensor nodes, making this
application representative for cost, networking and
deployment issues of the event-driven high density
Internet of things application class. In the simplest
star topology, the sensor nodes connect directly to the
gateways, and each gateway autonomously connects
to the server. Ideally, the field deployment procedure
ensures that each sensor node is received by more
than one gateway to avoid single points of failure of
the network. This application can be part of all three
WSN categories: event-driven (as we have seen),
time-driven (e.g., if the sensor nodes periodically
send the air temperature), and query-driven (e.g., if
the current temperature can be requested by the
operator). This means that the infrastructure that
supports the operation of this application can be
reused for a wide class of similar long-term
environmental monitoring applications like:
• water level for lakes, streams, sewages;
• gas concentration in air for cities, laboratories,
deposits;
• soil humidity and other characteristics;
• inclination for static structures (e.g., bridges, dams);
• position changes for, e.g., land slides;
• lighting conditions either as part of a combined
sensing or
standalone, e.g., to detect intrusions in dark places;
• infrared radiation for heat (fire) or animal
detection.
Since these and many related applications
typically use fewer sensor nodes, they are less
demanding on the communication channels (both in-
field and with the server), and for sensor node energy
and cost. Consequently, the in situ wildfire detection
application can be used as reference for the design of
aWSN platform
optimized for IoT environmental monitoring and the
platform should be easily reusable for a broad class
of related applications. Thus, the requirements of
aWSN platform for IoT long-term environmental
monitoring can be defined as follows:
• low-cost, small sensor nodes with on-board
processing, self-testing, and error recovery
capabilities;
• low-cost, small gateways (sinks) with self-testing,
error recovery and remote update capabilities, and
supporting several types of long-range
communication;
• sufficient gateway hardware and software resources
to support specific application needs (e.g., local
transducers, and data storage and processing);
• detection of field events on-board the gateway to
reduce network traffic and energy consumption;
• field communication protocol efficiently
supporting:
—from few sparse to a very large number of nodes;
—low data traffic in small packets;
• fast and reliable field node deployment procedure;
• remote configuration and update of field nodes;
• high availability of service of field nodes and
servers, reliable data communication and storage at
all levels;
• extensible server architecture for easy adaptation to
different IoT application requirements;

human operators and automated processing;
programmable multichannel alerts;
• automatic detection and report of WSN platform
faults (e.g., faulty sensor nodes) within hours, up to a
day; 3–10 years of maintenance-free service.
Fig. 2. Tiered structure of the WSN platform
The gateways process, store, and
periodically send the field data to the application
server using long-range communication channels.
The application server provides long-term data
storage, and interfaces for data access and process by
end users (either human or other applications).
The platform should be flexible to allow the
removal of any of its tiers to satisfy specific
application needs. For instance, the transducers may
me installed on the gateways for stream water level
monitoring since the measurement points may be
spaced too far apart for the sensor node short-range
communications. In the case of seismic reflection
geological surveys, for example, the sensor nodes
may be required to connect directly to an on-site
processing server, bypassing the gateways. And when
the gateways can communicate directly with the end
user, e.g., by an audible alarm, an application server
may not be needed.
In addition to the elements described above,
the platform can include an installer device to assist
the field operators to find a suitable installation place
for the platform nodes, reducing the deployment cost
and errors.
IV.WSN NODE DESIGN
In this section will be presented the use
of the specifications defined in Section III to
derive the specifications of the WSN platform
nodes, design space exploration, analysis of the
possible solutions, and most important design
decisions.
A. NODE SECTION DESIGN:
Since forest applications may require large
numbers of sensor nodes, their specifications are very
important for application performance, e.g., the in
situ distributed wildfire detection selected as
reference for the reusable WSN platform design.
One of the most important requirements is
the sensor node cost reduction. Also, for low
application cost the sensor nodes should have a long,
maintenance-free service time and support a simple
and reliable deployment procedure. Their physical
size and weight is also important, especially if they
are transported in backpacks for deployment. Node
energy source can influence several of its
characteristics. Batteries can provide a steady energy
flow but limited in time and may require costly
maintenance operations for replacement. Energy
harvesting sources can provide potentially endless
energy but unpredictable in time, which may impact
node operation. Also, the requirements of these
sources may increase node, packaging and

7. deployment costs. Considering all these, the battery
powered nodes may improve application cost and
reliability if their energy consumption can be
satisfied using a small battery that does not require
replacement during node lifetime.
Fig.3: Block diagram of Node section
In this node section, Node1 send the reading
of temperature to Node2 then to Node3 then updated
in monitoring section by Zigbee wireless
transmission. In monitoring section it will send alert
messages to the authorized person by using GSM
transmission.
Similarly at Node2, it has temperature
reading. After some delay it will send to Node3 then
to the monitoring section. Then to the authorized
person.
Similarly at Node3 will send the reading to
the monitoring section then to the authorized person
through GSM.
B. MONITORING SECTION:
The monitoring section receives the
environmental readings from the nodes and displays
on LCD screen and also if the temperature increased
beyond threshold voltage then it will send the alert
message to the authorized person’s mobile through
GSM network.

V.DEVICE IMPLEMENTATION
In the following are presented the most
important implementation choices for the
platform devices that are based on the
requirements in Sections III and IV and are
suitable for long-term environmental monitoring
internet of applications.
A. Sensor Node Implementation:
Fig. 3 shows several sensor nodes designed for long-
term environmental monitoring applications. The
node for in situ wildfire monitoring is optimized for
cost since the reference application typically requires
a high number of nodes (up to tens of thousands).

8. Fig.5: (a) firmware structure for reference
application and (b) operation state flow
diagram.
The node microcontroller is an 8 bit
ATMEL AT89S52 with 4 KB program and 128 bytes
data memory, clocked by its internal 11.0592 MHz
crystel oscillator (to reduce the costs and energy
consumption, since it does not need accurate
timings). The full custom 2 KB program has the
structure in Fig. 5(a). A minimal operating system
supports the operation of the main program loop
shown in Fig. 5(b) and provides the necessary
interface with the node hardware, support for node
self-tests, and the communication protocol.
B. Gateway Node Implementation:
Fig. 6 shows the layers of the full custom
software structure of the gateway. The top-level
operation is controlled by an application coordinator.
On the one hand, it accepts service requests from
various gateway tasks (e.g., as reaction to internal or
external events, such as message queue nearly full or
alert message received from field sensors,
respectively).On the other hand, the coordinator
triggers the execution of the tasks needed to satisfy
the service request currently served. Also, the
coordinator implements a priority-based service
preemption allowing higher priority service requests
to interrupt and take over the gateway control from
any lower priority service requests currently being
served. This improves the gateway forwarding time
of alert messages, for instance.
The application tasks implement specific
functionalities for the application, such as the
message queue, field message handling, sensor node
status, field message post processing, RPC, etc. They
are implemented as round-robin scheduled co-
routines to spare data memory (to save space and
costs the gateway uses only the microcontroller
internal RAM).
Manual configuration during sensor node deployment
is not necessary because the field node IDs are
mapped to the state structure using a memory-
efficient associative array. The node IDs are added as
they become active in gateway range up to
1000 sensor nodes and 10 peer gateways, while
obsolete or old entries are automatically reused when
needed.

In fact, gateways deployed inside
sewages for level monitoring applications
receiving data from one sensor node and no

which is consistent with the theoretical
calculations above. It is also worth noting that
the gateway average current can be further
reduced by using the hardware SPI port to
interface with the radio devices and by
programming the latter to autonomously scan for
incoming packets instead of the software-
controlled LPL over a software SPI port
emulation used currently.

device.

design with unused hardware and software
components removed.
VI. APPLICATION SERVER
The main purpose of a WSN application
server is to receive, store, and provide access to
field data. It bridges the low power
communication segments, with latency-energy
trade-offs, and the fast and ubiquitous end user
field data access (by humans or IoT
applications). The full custom server software
has the structure shown in Fig. 8. It provides
interfaces for:
• field nodes (gateways);
• the operators and supervisors for each field;
• various alert channels;
• external access for other IoT systems.
Each interface has a processing unit
that includes, e.g., the protocol drivers. A central
engine controls the server operation and the
access to the main database. It is written in
Java, uses a MySQL database and runs on a
Linux operating system. Two protocols are used
to interface with the field nodes (gateways) for
an energy-efficient communication over
unreliable connections: normal and service (boot
loader) operation. The normal operation protocol
acknowledges each event upon reception for an
incremental release of gateway memory
even for prematurely interrupted
communications. Messages and acknowledges

10. can be sent asynchronously to improve the
utilization of high latency communication
channels.
Time synchronization overhead is
avoided at every communication level. The
gateways timestamp the field messages and
events using their relative time and the server
converts it to real-world time using an offset
calculated at the begin of the gateway
communication session. The protocol for the
boot loader mode is stateless, optimized for
large data block transfers and does not use
acknowledges. The gateway maintains the
transfer state and incrementally checks and
builds the firmware image. An interrupted
transfer can also be resumed with minimal
overhead.
VII. FIELD DEPLOYMENT
PROCEDURE
The node deployment procedure of the
WSN platform aims to install each node in a field
location both close to the application-defined
position and that ensures a good operation over
its lifetime. For example, Fig. 12 shows some
typical deployments for the reference application
nodes. Node deployment can be a complex,
time-consuming, error-prone, and manpower-
intensive operation, especially for applications
with a large number of nodes. Thus, it needs to
be guided by automatic checks, to provide quick
and easy to understand feedback to field
operators, and to avoid deployment-time sensor
or gateway node configuration. The check of
node connectivity with the network is important
for star topologies and especially for transmit-
only nodes (like the reference application sensor
nodes). These nodes cannot use alternative
message routing if the direct link with the
gatewayis lost or becomes unstable.
The deployment procedure of the
sensor node of the reusable WSN platform takes
into account the unidirectional communication
capabilities of the sensor nodes. It is also
designed to avoid user input and deployment-
time configurations on the one hand, and a fast
automatic assessment of the deployment
position and reliable concurrent neighbor node
deployment on the

11. other hand. The sensor nodes are temporarily
switched to deployment operation by activating
their on-board REED switch using a permanent
magnet in the deployment device, as shown in
Fig.8(a). This one-bit near field communication
(NFC) ensures a fast, reliable, input-free node
selectivity. Its device ID is collected by the
deployment device that listens only for strong
deployment messages. These correspond to
nodes within just a few meters providing an
effective insulation from collecting IDs of nearby
concurrent node deployments. The gateways
that receive the sensor node deployment
messages report the link quality with the node
[see Fig. 8(b)].

suitability.

The deployment device collects all the data, and
computes and
displays an assessment of deployment position
suitability. No gateway or node configuration is
required and the procedure can be repeated
until a suitable deployment position is found.

reduced. Long range communication will be
provided. The security is high. The application
requirements for low cost, high number of sensors,
