Popis: The sensor-cloud technology alleviates the restrictions of the traditional wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in terms of storage, computation, and scalability by integrating WSNs with cloud computing. In recent years, sensor-cloud technology is increasingly applied to various real-world applications, especially in agriculture irrigation. With the powerful computing and storage sources, the sensor-cloud enables the massive on-field sensing data to be processed efficiently. Furthermore, the virtualization technology allows multiple clients, typically farmers, to share the same infrastructure resources at a low cost. In this paper, we propose a novel agriculture irrigation system by applying the sensor-cloud technology into the traditional sprinkler irrigation. Targeting the practical irrigation scenes, we illustrate the specific work pattern of the proposed system. Finally, compared with the conventional WSN-based scheme, the simulation results show that our system achieves about 31.06%–41.24% decrease in energy consumption.
