MODELS, ALGORITHMS AND TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE CONTROL, OPTIMIZATION AND SECURITY OF THE CYBER PHYSICAL SYSTEMS

Abstract

The intelligent autonomous electro-capillary irrigation system is a subject of multidisciplinary research, such as: geology, agriculture, electronics, informatics, artificial intelligence and communications. The system uses the physical electro-capillary effect of materials in combination with intelligent control, based on a Neural Network model. The algorithm of operation is aimed at optimizing water consumption, in the process of irrigation and improving the quality of agricultural products. Wireless Sensor Modules measures moisture levels and soil temperature by providing information to the Neural Network model for control decision making. The electro-capillary effect of the water transport system, in combination with the generated electrical potential, ensures the efficient and uniform distribution of water to the roots of plants. The monitoring of the irrigation process takes place by connecting the devices in a Wireless communication network. The benefits offered by the system: the use of renewable green energy, efficient water consumption, improving the quality of agricultural products, increasing yield, precision irrigation, learning capacity and self-adaptation of environmental conditions.
