Interoperabilidad de las Redes WSN con Arquitecturas TCP/IP Coorporativas Mediante 6LoWPAN Caso Práctico: Magap- Quimiag Riego Eficiente en un Cultivo de Papa.

Abstract

The interoperability of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) with corporate networks, by using 6LoWPAN was made through a practical case of efficient watering in a parcel of potato located in Puruhá High School, Quimiag Parish belonging to Riobamba Canton, by means of assessment of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Aquaculture and Fisheries. In this investigation was employed an applicative scientific methodology, where it could be proved successfully the interoperability of the Wireless Sensor Network with the corporative network world. It was used a Wireless Sensor Network with four Arduino Modules configured with 6LoWPAN, two modules control de electro valves jointly with sensors FC-28 that catch the ground humidity, another module obtained environmental temperature (18o C), relative humidity (45%), through the sensor DHT11. The fourth module works out as a Gateway by means of which information is sent towards a Data Base developed in PostgreSQL. In addition, it was configured a Web server (Apache) to visualize a page entitled Monitoring System 6LoWPAN (SM6) developed in PHP, JAVA. As a result, in 225m2 of sowing with 13 mounds, each one with 40 seeds is required in average 2 hours of watering at a frequency of 50 drops/minute equivalent to 164 liters/day. Compared whit traditional systems, to water per dropping represents a 40% in water saving. The wireless networks sensors can operate with corporate networks through 6LoWPAN obtaining a technological tool to monitor agricultural parameters and control a watering in real time. It is recommended to implement this system in the crops of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Aquaculture and Fisheries.
