Wireless Platform for Monitoring of Physiological Parameters of Cattle
2012
Monitoring of cattle and their physiological parameters are understood to be important for maximization of milk production, prevention of health problems, nutrition planning etc. Wireless and continuous monitoring of cattle may be one possibility to assess their physiological parameters. Two aspects were investigated in this work: First trials based on state of the art research were conducted concerning monitoring of cows and heartbeat and oxygen saturation were recorded. In the second part commercially available wireless motes are discussed and tested for suitability in animal monitoring, which also includes a transmission distance experiment. Distances between several hundred meters and several km were achieved.
