A Remote Intelligent Greenhouse Distributed Control System Based on ZIGBEE and GPRS

In order to improve the production efficiency and automation of the greenhouse, a new remote intelligent greenhouse control system based on ZIGBEE and GPRS technology is put forward in this paper. In this system data and commands are transmitted through ZIGBEE and GPRS which not only realizes higher efficiency for the real-time monitoring of multiple greenhouses, but also achieves the remote cluster control of the shutter and sprinkler irrigation. The system is composed of a central control unit and multiple field monitoring units. The information collecting and field automatic control are implemented by the field monitoring units distributed in each greenhouse, while data display, storage, query, analysis and remote command control are realized by the central control unit. The test is done in Qinghai Province, China. The result indicates that the system bears perfect function and steady performance.
