RSSI-BASED DISTRIBUTED SELF-LOCALIZATION FOR

WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS USED IN PRECISION

AGRICULTURE

ABSTRACT

This paper presents about RSSI-based algorithm based on message passing

to solve the approximate inference problem. The algorithm is designed for
precision agriculture applications such as pest management and pH sensing in large
farms where greater power efficiency besides communication and computational
scalability are needed but location accuracy requirements are less demanding. In
this algorithm, outgoing message by each node does not depend on the destination
node. This feature makes the proposed algorithm highly compatible with realistic
WSN deployments.

EXISTING SYSTEM
 Due to different sizes, the outgoing message grows with the
neighboring nodes
 Excessive communication overheads
 Slow convergence

PROPOSED SYSTEM
 By using message passing schedule which benefits from a fixed size (i.e)
outgoing message that does not grow with number of neighboring nodes
 Reducing the communication overheads
 Fast convergence
 Convenient and inexpensive manner
