ALGORITHM FOR SELECTING THE NUMBER OF WIRELESS CHANNELS FOR ANIMAL GRAZING CONTROL BASED ON THE INTERNET OF THINGS AND MULTICOPTERS

Karwi J. Q.J., Polshchikov K. A.

The article considers the process of animal grazing control based on the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (multicopters) and the Internet of Things. The timeliness of multicopters performing animal movement control tasks largely depends on the performance of network gateways receiving messages about the location of each controlled individual. An algorithm for selecting the number of wireless channels used to transmit geolocation data is proposed. The use of the algorithm allows you to set the values of the parameters of the controlled process, which ensure the safety of grazing animals.
