Abstract

This article discusses major features of different structured intelligent wireless sensor networking (WSN) and their potential applications. And this article focuses a particular interesting application and presents the experiment for a multi-greenhouse micro-climate remote monitoring and controlling system. The successful experiment indicates that WSN could be applied to large scaled greenhouses or any agriculture crop field, such as grape yard, corn field, wheat farm and etc. The WSN for agriculture applications is a well prospective research subject and it will draw a lot of attention in the years to come.
