Title
Design and test of nodes for field information acquisition based on WUSN
Abstract
The wireless sensor network technology was researched. Some wireless underground sensor network nodes and a sink node based on embedded technology and RF technology were designed innovatively. WUSN node consists of sensor, the processor, wireless communication module and power module, including processor using MSP430 microcontroller, RF modules adopting nRF905 communication module which having 433/868/915 MHz 3 ISM channel, the sink node is made up RF transceiver module, the core control circuit, information processing, data storage, LCD module and power supply. The nodes which acquired soil parameters information were regularly distributed in the monitoring area. The sink node collected the information of nodes that were sent in way of a single jumping or multiple hops and implemented fusion, analysis, processing, storage and display of information. For 50% sands, 35%silt, and 15% clay, a bulk density of 1.5 g/cm3 and a specific density of 2.6 / cm3, test for different soil moisture (5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%) in three different frequencies, result shows that radio signal path loss is the minimum in the low frequency and low moisture. Moreover, the changes of node deployed depth (0.2 m, 0.4 m, 0.6 m,0.8 m, 1m, 1.2 m, 1.4 m, 1.6m, 1.8 m and 2m) affected signal attenuation under 433MHz, it is concluded that the best WUSN node buried depth for effective transmission.
