“…Through their experiments, the authors concluded that the wireless channel propagation model must be determined before deploying the sensor nodes in palm orchards to obtain robust signal strength characteristics. A path loss model in a mango greenhouse was investigated based on the ZigBee wireless protocol [ 15 ].…”

“…Therefore, due to the limited resources and power budget of WSNs, an accurate wireless channel path loss model must be adopted to reflect the propagation features. This model is expected to demonstrate correct optimization and network evaluation performance throughout the deployment design process to develop the energy efficiency of the nodes [ 15 ], improve the target detection and localization applications [ 16 ], decrease the number of retransmission, and ensure Quality of Service (QoS) of the network [ 175 ]. Routing : Different problems can emerge due to packet collision and limited bandwidth, which are introduced by channel propagation, and so on.…”

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be used in agriculture to provide farmers with a large amount of information. Precision agriculture (PA) is a management strategy that employs information technology to improve quality and production. Utilizing wireless sensor technologies and management tools can lead to a highly effective, green agriculture. Based on PA management, the same routine to a crop regardless of site environments can be avoided. From several perspectives, field management can improve PA, including the provision of adequate nutrients for crops and the wastage of pesticides for the effective control of weeds, pests, and diseases. This review outlines the recent applications of WSNs in agriculture research as well as classifies and compares various wireless communication protocols, the taxonomy of energy-efficient and energy harvesting techniques for WSNs that can be used in agricultural monitoring systems, and comparison between early research works on agriculture-based WSNs. The challenges and limitations of WSNs in the agricultural domain are explored, and several power reduction and agricultural management techniques for long-term monitoring are highlighted. These approaches may also increase the number of opportunities for processing Internet of Things (IoT) data.

Wireless Sensor Networks have highly proved its contribution in precision agriculture. Communication channel modelling investigation is a highly demanded to achieve a successful communication system where a good wave propagation model is crucially needed. Precision agriculture degrades the traveling waves in various forms in addition to the effects of the large-scale path losses models. This paper reviews the most known theoretical large-scale path losses models such as free space (FSPL) and Plane earth (PE) models as well as the vegetation models represented by Weissberger, ITU-R, FITU-R and COS235 models. Indeed, this work illustrates the effects of many factors on the total path losses such as separation distance between transceivers, antenna heights and the depth of vegetation that presence in the path propagation. In conclusion, the total path loss is computed based on large-scale path losses and the vegetation losses in protected vegetation environment.

Path loss is the power variation between the receiver power and the transmitter power. The attenuation of the signal takes place in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) because of path loss. There are various kinds of path loss due to absorption, reflection, refraction and many other factors under diverse environments which are all defined under path loss models. This research paper provides a brief study on different path loss models and their mathematical evaluation. The objective of the proposed work is to evaluate the Energy Efficient Distributed Receiver (EEDR) based routing protocol under the various path loss models and check the performance variation in different environments. The simulation results shows the effect of path loss on end-to-end delay, number of hops, energy consumption and the number of alive nodes in WSNs topology.
