regulating and controlling temperature indoor envi-
ronment, subscriber’s central station remotely can
receive and transmit order information to multiple
greenhouses, improve the efficiency of management.
The above plan is only for monitoring and report-
ing the conditions of the greenhouse, green walls,
indoor green spaces, gardens, orchards, industrial
greenhouses, hydroponic greenhouses. In contrast,
in addition to monitoring, controlling, and even re-
porting, our plan can have an irrigation program for
each number of plants, etc., and has no restrictions
on installing sensors and other equipment.
The main problem in existing systems is the lack of
modularity, making it necessary to purchase a com-
plete approach to upgrade the system. Designing the
whole system on one board increases the possibility
of failure, circuit complexity, and the impossibility of
expansion. Existing systems are limited in increasing
the number of solenoid valves, which prevents ex-
panding the irrigation space. It is not possible to offer
different programs depending on the type of plant.
The number and type of sensors are limited. Existing
systems operate only on the GSM platform. There
is no alternative if GSM is disconnected and current
systems do not allow the storage of incoming reports
and commands.
For this purpose, a comprehensive and intelligent
system has been designed that solves all the prob-
lems of the current systems. Among the capabili-
ties of this system, the following can be mentioned:
Separating the mainboards, controllers, and sensors
from each other and modulating them, which solves
the problem of limiting the definition of device ele-
ments (solenoid valve, pump, and sensor). The pos-
sibility of increasing the number of solenoid valves
indefinitely will expand the geographical space of
the coverage area. The possibility of increasing the
number of pumps indefinitely will make it possible to
define different intelligent programs based on the in-
formation received from the sensors and adjust the
solenoid valves. Ability to increase the number of
sensors per pump and solenoid valve to provide dif-
ferent applications based on other plants. Use GSM,
GPRS, and Internet platforms as a backup. Estab-
lish communication between the mentioned boards
wirelessly. The possibility of direct connection of the
device to the Internet to receive the program and
send reports and send orders and receive messages
through a server, in which case the information sent
and received can be stored.
