Abstract

The Multifunctional Gateway Sensor Node is an extension of the Gateway sensor node of Wireless Sensor Network having multiple functionalities. Addendum of functionalities comprise different types of technologies which are LCD Color display, keypad to operate Gateway Node, AVR camera and solar panel for additional power support. The node itself also acts as a weather station based on Fuzzy AHP for precise decision support. So the main idea behind this research is to operate WSN without computer. It will be most usable in agriculture, forest monitoring as well as marine securities when pc is unavailable. The location of particular place for weather station feature will be selected by the help of Koppen Classification, instead of GPS. This sensor node is also operable by the specially designed java based software having great intelligence as per the locality. Hence the paper presents the idea about the proposed research area.
