Wireless sensor networks for marginal farming in India

Jacques Panchard

In this dissertation, we explore the potential of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in an original context, the small agriculture of Developing Countries (DCs). Our goal is to confront an emerging technology with a concrete problem of world-wide dimensions, ...

Wireless Sensor Networking for Rain-fed Farming Decision Support

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Jacques Panchard, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Sanjeev Kumar

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be a valuable decision- support tool for farmers. This motivated our deployment of a WSN system to support rain-fed agriculture in India. We defined promising use cases and resolved technical challenges throughout a two- ...

COMMONSense Net: A Wireless Sensor Network for Resource-Poor Agriculture in the Semiarid Areas of Developing Countries

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Jacques Panchard

We describe the on-going design and implementation of a sensor network for agricultural management targeted at resource-poor farmers in India. Our focus on semi-arid regions led us to concentrate on water-related issues. Throughout 2004, we carried out a s ...
