Wireless sensor networking has a bright future in the field of computer networking because we can solve the monitoring problems at an advanced level in the future with the help of such technology of networking. From the research that has been conducted, the main features describe that ZigBee can form useful part of the automation system architecture in modern greenhouses. Wireless communication can be used to collect the measurements and communicate between the centralized control and the actuators located to the different parts of the greenhouse. In advanced Wireless sensor network (WSN) solutions, some parts of the control system itself can also be implemented in a distributed manner to the network such that local control loops can be formed. Compared to the cabled systems, the installation of WSN is fast, cheap and easy. Moreover, it is easy to relocate the measurement points when needed by just moving sensor nodes from one location to another within a communication range of the coordinator device.
