Highly reliable wireless environmental control system for home gardening

Various agricultural environment control systems using sensor data have recently been proposed and implemented. However, the high temperatures and humidity in agricultural environments prevent wireless sensor networks from collecting environmental data and operating long term with high reliability. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a greenhouse environment control system that can maintain a high operating ratio and a low packet error rate (PER) even when operating in severe environmental conditions. Implementing a fault-tolerant system using 429MHz band wireless communication achieved an operating ratio of 100% and an average PER of 0.016%.
