Context-Aware Wearable System For Animals - An Exploration And Classification

In the new era of advanced technology, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and Wireless Body Area Sensor Networks (WBASN) have enormous applications in various disciplines. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) have been used in many fields for different purpose like health care, assisting senior citizens, wireless communication, tracking, monitoring, predictive maintenance, enhanced safety and security, improve productivity, energy saving smart grid, smart home etc. to assist peoples. Wireless Body Area Sensor Networks (WBASN) in health care strongly utilized for continuous real time health monitoring of a human health as well as in animal husbandry without creating noise in their normal daily life activities. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and Wireless Body area sensor networks (WBASN) provide opportunities for wireless tracking and monitoring of animals remotely. Remotely sensing systems bring another level of observing into several businesses as well as for agriculturist farmers. In this paper, survey reviewed of different cases of wireless sensors for cattle and pet animals tracking and monitoring. Classify them into different categories according to their types, domain and functionalities.
