Abstract

Advances in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has led to its utilization for development of broadscale and long-term natural checking. In the past, there have been difficulties experienced in meeting end-clients necessities for data gathering and real-time situation monitoring. The essential point is to provide ease of installation, real-time monitoring, and also to give more imperative reliability and productivity to affect choices of system hardware and programming. This paper suggests a method for better utilization of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) for real-time water quality monitoring to prevent the delay in handling the situation. The method comprises of sensor nodes with a networking capability that can be deployed for continuous monitoring purpose. The temperature and turbidity parameters associated with the water quality assurance is estimated in real time by the sensors, and this information is updated in a remotely located server through GPRS.
