dc.description.abstract |
Automatic livestock tracking is necessary for
countries facing stock theft problems, like South Africa and
Kenya. This paper presents a conceptual design of
architecture for real-time wireless livestock tracking based on
Internet of Things paradigm. It is a hierarchical model
consisting of three building blocks, where the first block is
represented with wireless sensor network. Additionally, we
have developed a low-power device for livestock tracking in an
outdoor environment. The animal tracking device (AnTrack)
is self-sustainable with a watertight solar panel(s), designed as
a collar to be worn by the animals. A detailed analysis of the
AnTrack power consumption proves that the device is capable
to generate enough supply power, even when there is no
sunshine for a week. This device can be used as a robust
building block of future real-time Internet of Things livestock
tracking solutions. |
