WSN-Based Electronic Livestock of Dairy Cattle and Physical Parameters Monitoring

Abstract

A numerous advantages of wireless sensor networks have led to discover various applications incurred in the field of health systems, home, industrial, commercial, military, and environment etc. The biggest privilege of using WSN is due to its low cost, maintenance, and other desirable features. One major application involved in WSN is animal health monitoring. By incorporating this, health status of the cattle can be observed and maintained based on variety of parameters using distinct sensors. The description about unique sensors that are associated in wireless sensor network in order to monitor the health status of cattle to erupt the ill health is presented in this paper. The disadvantages incurred in the existing system are overcome by the proposed system containing android application where all the cattle’s health-related data will be stored in a database.
