Abstract

Greenhouse farming is a trending practice to secure food production in desert environments. Such a practice often requires sensing systems to monitor the greenhouse microclimate. However, traditional monitoring systems are often limited by their feature size, energy consumption, and maintenance cost. To address these issues, this article introduces a luXSensing beacon—an energy harvesting sensing device empowered with Bluetooth communication technology to perform continuous environmental sensing. To enable long-lasting or even batteryless operation of the sensing device, we propose a novel and generic design methodology to suggest minimum energy harvesting hardware requirements, namely the photovoltaic panel's area and supercapacitor's size for energy storage. In addition, a lifetime model is also proposed to calculate the extended lifetime of a hybrid energy harvesting device if it is equipped with a backup battery. Based on the proposed methodology, a prototype system is developed, deployed, and tested in a desert greenhouse. The luXSensing beacon demonstrated its capability of monitoring air temperature and illuminance continuously in a 24/7 manner. The comparative compactness and low-energy consumption of the system are advantageous not only to its deployment in greenhouses but also to the reduction of energy budget and the maintenance cost of greenhouse farming.

LuXSensing 信标:用于可持续温室监测的无电池物联网传感器、设计方法和现场测试
温室种植是确保沙漠环境中粮食生产的一种趋势性做法。这种做法通常需要传感系统来监测温室的微气候。然而,传统的监测系统往往受限于其功能尺寸、能耗和维护成本。为了解决这些问题,本文介绍了一种 luXSensing 信号信标--一种采用蓝牙通信技术的能量收集传感设备,可进行连续的环境传感。为使传感设备能够长效甚至无电池运行,我们提出了一种新颖的通用设计方法,以建议最低的能量采集硬件要求,即用于储能的光电板面积和超级电容器尺寸。此外,我们还提出了一个寿命模型,用于计算混合能量收集装置在配备备用电池的情况下可延长的寿命。根据提出的方法,开发了一个原型系统,并在沙漠温室中进行了部署和测试。luXSensing 信标展示了其全天候连续监测空气温度和光照度的能力。该系统结构紧凑、能耗低,不仅有利于在温室中部署,还能降低温室种植的能源预算和维护成本。
