WSN is built by connecting a group of nodes together to perform the required tasks. These nodes cooperate and automatically create a network among themselves. One of the most common wireless sensor node, also commonly known as mote, used is the MICAz mote. MICAz is easy to implement and can be used to build WSN for various applications. This paper demonstrates the deployment of MICAz motes using a test case of soil moisture sensor for environmental monitoring applications. A detailed description of hardware and software requirements, sensor calibrations, mote firmware, testing, debugging and verifications is given. This will enable researchers and engineers to quickly obtain a working knowledge in the implementation of various WSN applications. © 2011 IEEE. date: 2011 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84858771304&doi=10.1109%2fICCAIE.2011.6162150&partnerID=40&md5=f839e7cde0866fd6a077431d7edb7045 id_number: 10.1109/ICCAIE.2011.6162150 full_text_status: none publication: ICCAIE 2011 - 2011 IEEE Conference on Computer Applications and Industrial Electronics place_of_pub: Penang pagerange: 303-308 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781457720581 citation: Ali, N.A. and Drieberg, M. and Sebastian, P.
