Popis: Animal husbandry is an increasingly popular business where cattle are nurtured for food and other products. The productivity of cattle farms is largely affected by the health conditions of the cattle. Cattle with a communicable disease can drastically bring down the productivity of the whole farm. So it is highly recommended to identify unhealthy cattle. In this context IoT can contribute a lot in terms of developing an autonomous system for health monitoring of cattle. A system is developed in this work consisting of data gathering, mobile nodes and IoT cloud platform. The data gathering node is provided with various sensors to sense the health parameters of the cattle and these data gets transmitted to the mobile node with the TDMA scheme in order to prevent data collision. The mobile node acts a gateway to the IoT cloud platform where data analytics on the sensor data is carried out to identify unhealthy cattle and the owner of the farm and the vet gets notified.
