Abstract
This study was performed to develop a wireless system for measuring agricultural atmospheric factors using ubiquitous sensor network(USN). In the study, temperature, humidity and light intensity were selected and evaluated as major agricultural atmospheric factors. An USN system was designed and implemented by using Zigbex I and II (mote sensor nodes of MICA series) provided by Hanback Electronics, Korea. The system was tested in a greenhouse and an orchard. The experiment results showed that the suggested USN measuring system would be very effective on comprehensive measurement of the selected factors on the basis of time, day, spatial sequence with reasonable costs.
