1. A Passive-RFID Wireless Sensor Node for Precision AgricultureAccurate soil data is crucial for precision agriculture. While existing optical methods can correlate soil health to the gasses emitted from the field, in-soil electronic sensors enable real-time measurements of soil conditions at the effective root zone of a crop. Unfortunately, modern soil sensor systems are limited in what signals they can measure and are generally too expensive to reasonably distribute the sensors in the density required for spatially accurate feedback. In this... P.J. Goodrich, C. Baumbauer, A.C. Arias |
2. Printed Nitrate Sensors for In-soil MeasurementsManaging nitrate is a central concert for precision agriculture, from delineating management zones, to optimizing nitrogen use efficiency through in-season applications, to minimizing leaching and greenhouse gas emissions. However, measurement methods for in-soil nitrate are limiting. State-of-the-art soil nitrate analysis requires taking soil or liquid samples to laboratories for chemical or spectrographic analysis. These methods are accurate, but costly, labor intensive, and cover limited geographic... C. Baumbauer, P. Goodrich, A. Arias |
