Abstract

In this paper, a low-cost device for efficient controlling of irrigation pumps over the phone call without the internet was designed and implemented having the goal of converting a remote manual irrigation system into a smart automatic irrigation system to control the irrigation pump remotely whenever an abnormal condition arises by using the Dual Tone Multiple Frequency (DTMF) technologies. The purpose of this research is to build an internet-independent automated irrigation system at a low cost for the rural farmer. An Arduino nano and a GSM module are used for controlling the system and a DFplayer mini-MP3 module is also employed for voice response. Here, we practically implemented the designed architecture to justify the design and found that the proposed irrigation system works successfully with an overall system cost of 14.15$. The designed and implemented system does not need an internet connection to operate which makes the device more acceptable to the village farmer of Bangladesh where an internet connection isn’t strong enough.
