As has been shown in earlier work, by using the reliable IdealVolting undervolting scheme the lifetime of WSN applications can be increased significantly while keeping the node in a safe state even under rough environmental conditions. To show the usability of undervolting in a real world WSN deployment, we performed a long-term study of IdealVolting in a Smart Farming application. All measurements were performed on a generic outdoor testbed for WSNs (PotatoNet) which is also presented within this paper. We collected a long-term dataset of a WSN running for one farming season on a potato field to compare the reliability and performance characteristics of IdealVolting against a regular powered WSN.enInformatikConference Paper10.1109/DCOSS.2016.15Other
