论文摘要
土壤水分是农业中的重要参数。它决定了一些环境和农业活动，例如气候变化，干旱预测，灌溉等。智能灌溉管理需要连续的土壤水分监测以减少不必要的用水。最近，在农民中，低成本传感器的使用在土壤水分监测中变得越来越流行。在本文中，通过两种方式证明了低成本电阻和电容性土壤水分传感器的比较。一种方法是在重量和容量水含量中对传感器进行校准，另一种是当将不同量的水添加到相同量的土壤中时，传感器的响应分析。在为任何土壤水分监测平台选择具有成本效益的传感器之前，这项工作中显示的分析至关重要。
Soil moisture is an essential parameter in agriculture. It determines several environmental and agricultural activities such as climate change, drought prediction, irrigation, etc. Smart irrigation management requires continuous soil moisture monitoring to reduce unnecessary water usage. In recent times, the use of low-cost sensors is becoming popular among farmers for soil moisture monitoring. In this paper, a comparison of low-cost resistive and capacitive soil moisture sensors is demonstrated in two ways. One way is the calibration of the sensors in gravimetric and volumetric water content, and the other is the sensors' response analysis when different quantities of water are added to the same amount of soil. The analysis shown in this work is essential before choosing cost-effective sensors for any soil moisture monitoring platform.
