IoT Weather Station Optimized for Energy Efficiency

Abstract

This work presents an economical IoT weather station with energy-efficient capabilities. It offers a multi-sensor platform, with balanced functionality and power optimization that ensures an extended- wireless range. The developed system features diverse sensors measuring temperature, humidity, pressure and light intensity. Employing power-saving techniques like sleep/wake cycles and controlled sampling rates makes the station economical and power-efficient. This setup allows distant observation via a web browser interface, addressing the challenge of low power and extended-range deployments of embedded systems. The adopted energy optimization strategy enabled autonomous long-range functioning, with real-time data collection and visualization. The recoded peak power consumption is only 2022 A for all the embedded operations.
