Özet

In this paper we discuss a small size experimentally implemented pipeline watering system, in which the pressure sensors are placed at carefully selected points. In our prototype, the TelosB motes, integrated with the pressure sensors, communicate in real time with each other and also with the base station according to the specifically designed wireless network protocol. The reason to choose a WSN as an infrastructure in our study is to let the system work without the need of extra cabling. Such a system incorporates both efficiency and flexibility, and provides the users with an automatic controlled water/gas system based on the sensor data. In our work, data was continuously measured using a pressure sensor and transferred to a central monitoring station via IEEE 802.15.4 wireless sensor network for storage and display. TelosB wireless motes were programmed with nesC and a graphical user interface was used to capture and display incoming measurements for all selected points being monitored. Evaluation of the system was done based on the WSN performance criteria (packet loss and network lifetime) and also based on the accuracy of the collected pressure data. In both respects the system performed very satisfactory and has been successfully implemented.
