Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a smart agricultural greenhouse environmental quality monitoring system based on the Internet of Things to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: A smart agricultural greenhouse environmental quality monitoring system based on the Internet of Things, including a sensor module, a data transmission module, a data processing module, an early warning module and a remote monitoring module; The sensor module is used to collect the environmental parameters of the greenhouse in real time, and the environmental parameters of the greenhouse include air temperature, air humidity, light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration, soil moisture and soil pH value; The data transmission module is used to transmit the environmental parameters and fault information of the greenhouse collected by the sensor module to the data processing module through the edge computing gateway device; The data processing module is used to receive and process the environmental parameters of the greenhouse, extract key data, and store the environmental parameters and key data of the greenhouse on the cloud server; The early warning module is used to generate an environmental quality assessment result and set an environmental parameter threshold of the greenhouse. When the environmental parameter of the greenhouse exceeds the set environmental parameter threshold of the greenhouse, an early warning signal is sent to the remote monitoring module or the user terminal; The remote monitoring module is used to view the environmental parameters and environmental quality assessment results of the greenhouse in real time, and to generate a visual environmental quality report based on the environmental quality assessment results.

[0005] Furthermore, the sensor module is used to collect environmental parameters of the greenhouse, and the environmental parameters of the greenhouse include air temperature, air humidity, light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration, soil moisture and soil pH value; The temperature of the air at different heights in the greenhouse is collected by a temperature sensor, wherein the different heights include the top, the middle and the bottom; The air humidity of the air around the crops is collected through humidity sensors; The light intensity in the greenhouse is collected through the light intensity sensor; The carbon dioxide concentration in the greenhouse is collected through a carbon dioxide concentration sensor; The soil moisture at different soil depths in the greenhouse is collected through soil moisture sensors; The soil pH value in the greenhouse is collected through the soil pH sensor.

[0006] It needs to be explained that the temperature sensors are distributed in different positions in the greenhouse, including the top, middle and bottom, to obtain the changes in air temperature at different heights; the humidity sensor is set near the crops to accurately detect the impact of air humidity on crop growth; the light intensity sensor is configured in a location that can fully capture light to accurately monitor changes in light intensity; the carbon dioxide concentration sensor should be placed in a location where the air is well circulated and can accurately reflect the overall carbon dioxide concentration in the greenhouse; the soil moisture sensor is deployed at multiple soil layer depths to achieve detailed monitoring of soil moisture conditions; the soil pH sensor is implanted below the surface to accurately measure the soil acidity and alkalinity level.

[0007] Furthermore, the sensor module also includes an automatic calibration function and a fault diagnosis function; The automatic calibration function is used to automatically calibrate the data collected by the sensor; The fault diagnosis function is used to detect the working state of the sensor, and when a fault is detected, the fault information is sent to the data processing module through the data transmission module.

[0008] Furthermore, the data transmission module is connected to the sensor module through the edge computing gateway device, and transmits the environmental parameters and fault information of the greenhouse collected by the sensor module to the data processing module; The sensor module and the data transmission module are electrically connected via wired or wireless means, and the output end of the sensor module is connected to the input end of the data transmission module; the data transmission module and the data processing module are connected via a communication protocol, and the output end of the data transmission module is connected to the input end of the data processing module.

[0009] It needs to be explained that the edge computing gateway device has data encryption and secure transmission functions, which can ensure the security and integrity of environmental parameters and fault information during the transmission process, and prevent data leakage and tampering; it uses a variety of communication technologies, such as ZigBee, LoRa, NB-IoT, etc., to adapt to different farmland environments and communication needs; this system uses Zigbee communication technology as the main networking method, and sensor nodes can self-organize to form a network. The data transmission is stable and reliable, with low energy consumption, and is suitable for application in large-scale environments such as greenhouses.

[0010] Further, the data processing module includes a data receiving unit, a data analyzing unit and a data storage unit; The data receiving unit is used to receive the environmental parameters of the greenhouse and the fault information of the sensor transmitted by the data transmission module; The data analysis unit extracts the environmental parameters of the greenhouse, and obtains the future trend of the environmental parameters of the greenhouse through a time series prediction algorithm; extracts the environmental parameters of different areas in the greenhouse, and obtains the area with the greatest difference through a cluster analysis algorithm; extracts the crop growth parameters in the area with the greatest difference, and associates the future trend of the environmental parameters of the greenhouse with the crop growth parameters through the establishment of a mathematical model to extract key data; The data storage unit is used to store the environmental parameters and key data of the greenhouse on the cloud server in real time.

[0011] It needs to be explained that the data processing module applies a time series prediction algorithm to perform trend assessment on past data in order to predict future changes in environmental indicators; uses a cluster analysis algorithm to classify environmental data from different regions to identify areas with large environmental differences; and establishes mathematical models and algorithms to conduct correlation analysis on environmental parameters and crop growth parameters to extract key data, such as crop growth trends, pest and disease warnings, irrigation and fertilization recommendations, etc.

[0013] It should be explained that users can set the thresholds of environmental parameters according to the growth needs of different crops and the actual conditions of the greenhouse; when the environmental parameters exceed the set thresholds, the system can send early warning signals to users via text messages, emails, application push, etc., to remind users to take corresponding measures in time. For example, when the temperature is too high, the early warning system will notify farmers to turn on ventilation equipment in time; when the soil moisture is lower than the set value, the irrigation system will be automatically started.

[0014] Further, the remote monitoring module includes a display unit and a monitoring unit; The monitoring unit retrieves the environmental parameters of the greenhouse stored in real time by the cloud server, and displays the environmental parameters of the greenhouse on the user terminal according to a preset environmental parameter display template; The display unit extracts the environmental quality assessment results stored in real time in the cloud server, and displays the environmental quality assessment results on the user terminal according to a preset graphical display template and a report template.

Users only need to pay on demand, which effectively reduces operating costs; in addition, the server creation and configuration can be completed in a short time, speeding up the launch of the business.

[0018] Furthermore, it also includes an environmental control equipment control module for controlling the environmental parameters of the greenhouse; The environmental control equipment control module is connected to the data processing module and the early warning module, extracts the key data of the data processing module and the early warning signal of the early warning module, and generates the environmental control device control instructions according to the preset control scheme and environmental parameter data; The environmental control equipment control module includes an equipment control interface, which is communicatively connected with the environmental control device.
