Aiming at requirements of greenhouse environment data wireless acquisition

video monitoring and remote management

a kind of intelligent monitoring system for greenhouse environment based on wireless sensor networks（ WSNs） is designed. The intelligent gateway is composed of ZigBee and WiFi fusion communication technology

the ZigBee wireless communication device is used for data acquisition of greenhouse environment

and WiFi communication equipment is used for wireless video transmission and remote communication. The system not only avoids cumbersome installation and maintenance of cable monitoring

but also solves shortcomings of low transmission rate and short transmission distance of ZigBee WSNs

greenhouse environment monitoring function is expanded. Validation test results show that

the network packet loss rate is less than 1 % under normal circumstances

the proposed system realizes performances of remote monitoring and management

and has good applicability and scalability.
