Abstract Smart agriculture has been a promising model with the intention of supervising farms by means of contemporary wireless technologies to enhance the quantity and quality of yield at the same time as minimizing the individual labor requirement. In addition the effective utilization of the Sensors as communication components that is the key one to monitor and manage soil, water, light, humidity, temperature. A Mobile Ad-hoc sensor node comprises sensors to gather real time environment from the agricultural land with the wireless communication technology and process the data before sharing information with other nodes in the network. On the other hand, the challenges have been enormously high path loss and lack of communication range under the environment when passing through soil, sand, water and other climatic conditions. As Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has self-organized and adhoc wireless capability to monitor physical or environmental conditions, it can be used effectively in smart agriculture. As sensor nodes have been limited itself by means of power to be in active mode always, the design of such energy efficient Agriculture WSN is a paramount issue. Hence it has been planned to utilize the WSN as well as Ubiquitous technology for the smart agriculture with energy efficiency. With the purpose of build up a model, a Ubiquitous agriculture Mobile Sensor Network based Threshold built-in MAC Routing protocol (TBMP) has been proposed to make it fit for minimal resource utilization by comparing with the existing protocols IMR and PTSR. In addition, the testing will be done to monitor changes in environmental surroundings in the agricultural land smartly in order to obtain maximum usage of Ubiquitous concept by applying existing and proposed protocols.

Most existing routing protocols for delay tolerant mobile sensor network(DTMSN) based on simplistic random mobility models. However, the real-life mobility pattern is complicated. We propose a real-life mobility patterns based routing protocol in DTMSN, The simulation results show that RMPR achieves higher delivery ratio and lower delay and transmission overhead

In the recent years, an efficient design of a Wireless Sensor Network has become important in the area of research. The major challenges in the design of Wireless Sensor Network is to improve the network lifetime. The main difficulty for sensor node is to survive in that monitoring area for the longer time that means there is a need to increase the lifetime of the sensor nodes by optimizing the energy and distance. There are various existing routing protocols in which optimal routing can be achieved like Data-Centric, Hierarchical and Location-based routing protocols. In this paper, new power efficient routing protocol is being proposed that not only select the shortest path between the source node and sink node for data transmission but also maximizes the lifetime of the participating nodes by selecting the best path for sending the data packet across the network. The main objective of this research is to develop a faster algorithm to find the energy efficient route for Wireless Sensor Network. Simulation results shows that this strategy achieves long network lifetime when compared to the other standard protocols.


We all know how Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is making its way in the modern world and how its application is growing effectively. It has been useful technology which helps to transmit and receive the data. In WSN, all information of physical parameter is sensed and processed by the sensor nodes. Along with the growth of technology in WSN, growth of sensor node is also in progress, it means that size of sensor node is getting reduced. Due to this dimension of the battery of the sensor node is also decreases. Hence Power storage of the battery is also reduced which is a demerit in WSN. But in sensor network replacement of battery is not possible. So we can increase the energy efficiency of sensor node by using LEACH protocol. This protocol helps us to increase life span of network. For heterogeneous network, LEACH produces greater unstable region. To the network stable the paper proposes another protocol is Stable Election protocol (SEP). In this paper LEACH and SEP protocol are tested with MATLAB simulation and comparison of both has done.
