1.1 INTRODUCTION
In India, agriculture is the main occupation; more than 50% of the population is
dependent on agriculture. It is the backbone of our economy. Despite the focus on
industrialization, agriculture remains a dominant sector of the Indian economy both in
terms of contribution to gross domestic product (GDP) as well as a source of employment
to millions across the country. So the development in agriculture will boost economy in
industry, trade and transport. To boost the economy there is a need to increase the
productivity of crops. The volume of production depends not only on the capital
investments and marketing strategies but also on the technology used during the
production and processing stage. Despite the use of modern technologies, a major threat
faced by farmlands is its security.
Nowadays, security is becoming an significant matter for farmers, despite that the threat
of a violence on farm is marginal, we must consider our liability to criminal deeds such as
robbery of farm equipment or chemicals, criminal disruption involving unsecured
equipment and machinery, destruction of bioengineered plants, common vandalism.
Unauthorized access to farm chemicals and application equipment are greatest security
danger to farms, nurseries and green houses where plants are developed. And as an adult
we know that insecticides should be stored away from children. In addition, insecticides
should be protected from intruders and thieves who may accidentally, or intentionally,
use these chemicals to damage other individuals, crop or non-crop lands, the environment
or even themselves. Be responsible for the safety of yourself, your family,
representatives, and your group. Set up your farm to endure the pressure of unauthorized
activity. Thus this study aims for the solution for the problem. This system will help to
secure and monitor the particular area to lessen the time and effort of farmers. In due
course, the proponents designed and implemented a system that utilizing a sensor and
CCTV which the advocate will use to identify the trespasser inside the secured area and
produce a yield. This yield is a security system that has an alarm which will trigger when
a movement of intruder recognized.
Security and safety are key issues which have high priority in the concerns of society
today. These concerns paved the way for the rise and the usage of CCTV networks, which
most institutions use today for monitoring purposes. Unfortunately, statistics show that
normal-sized buildings have around 50-100 cameras, all of which require constant and
simultaneous monitoring. This is no easy task, considering that control rooms usually host
only one or two security personnel. If a surveillance operator were tasked to monitor the
camera feeds for several hours, his attention would decrease over time. The probability of
missing alarm situations would increase accordingly. Instead of adding alarms, which can
be very expensive, this paper suggests to automate the monitoring process using a
computer to analyze the live feed via digital signal processing techniques.
The block diagram of “Security System for Farmland Based on CCTV” is as shown
in figure1.
The basic operation of the block diagram is, all of the components used will be interfaced
to the arduino microcontroller. Whenever the PIR sensor detects the motion, the system
immediately triggers an alarm detecting the presence of unauthorized person and sends
SMS through GSM modem and the CCTV will be activated. Upon this, the video will be
monitored in the owner’s phone and hence necessary controlled action will be taken,
which is the buzz ring of siren.
The GSM stands for Global System for Mobile Communications. In this technology is
used to the communication purpose; it operates at a baud rate of 9600bps in standard
UART model through AT Commands. This GSM Modem can accept any of the 2G or 3G
network operator SIM card and act like as mobile phone with its unique phone number.
Advantage of using this GSM modem will be that it can use RS232 port to communicate
and develop embedded security applications or any other applications. This modem used
to SMS Control, data transfer, remote control and logging can be developed easily. The
modem can either be connected to PC serial port directly or microcontroller. It can be
Motion sensors use infrared sound and vibration to detect moving objects or people. The
sensors gather data as regards the acceleration, velocity, and position of the object. When
motion sensors are attached to a home security system, they can detect motion alerting the
homeowner of any breach of security. Motion sensors use one or several technologies to
sense movement in an area. The use of multiple technologies, microwave technology and
passive infrared sensor (PIR) technology, helps to reduce the possibility of false alarms
and increase the efficiency of the surveillance security system. The sensors are sensitive
to an individual’s skin temperature and are designed to use mid-infrared wavelengths in
the detection of movements.
The PIR sensor is the core part of the system. The system basically function based on
infrared radiation, which is emitted from human body . PIR sensor is widely used in
security system to detect the motion of human. Infrared (IR) light is electromagnetic
radiation with a wavelength between 0.7 and 300 micrometers. Human beings are the
source of infrared radiation. It was found that the normal human body temperature radiate
IR at wavelengths of 10 micrometer to 12 micrometer. PIR sensors are passive electronic
devices which detect motion by sensing infrared fluctuations. It has three pins (gate, drain
and source). After it has detected IR radiation difference, a high is sent to the signal pin.
PIR sensor is made up of crystalline material that generates a surface electric charge when
exposed to heat in the form of IR. This change in radiation striking the crystalline surface
gives to change in charge. The sensor elements are sensitive to radiation of wide range
but due to the use of filter window that limits the sensitiveness to the range 8 to 14
micrometer which is most suitable to human body radiation.
Arduino is an open source electronic platform based on easy to use hardware and
software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs- light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or
To set up the farm in such a way to reduce the pressure of unauthorized activities.
To secure and monitor the particular area of farmland to lessen the time and effort
of farmers.
To enable the owner in viewing the live recording of the farmland in the android
mobile.
It is helpful to the society as it ensures a strong security for the farmland and also reduces
the suicide rate of farmers, due to the losses incurred.
As it is a security system which involves real time monitoring of the area in which it is
installed, it is useful and can be adopted in industries as well with no or little changes.

HARDWARE COMPONENTS
CCTV Box Cameras are professional quality CCTV security cameras that allow the user
flexibility in designing a CCTV camera best suited for their needs. You can choose the
type of weather protection, camera resolution, video signal type, and the type of lens that
best suits your needs. Box cameras also allow easy replacement or upgrading of the
camera/enclosure/lens combination. By simply changing the box camera body, the video
pickup portion can be replaced. Replacing or upgrading the lens allows the user to change
the angle of view, without having to replace the entire camera. Box cameras are also dual
voltage cameras for the most part, meaning either 24VAC or 12VDC power can be used.
In the long run box cameras also outlast bullet and dome cameras, which makes them an
ideal choice for large scale installations.
Features
Construction
Infrared radiation enters through the front of the sensor, known as the 'sensor
face'.At the core of a PIR sensor is a solid state sensor made from pyroelectric
materials.
Pyroelectric generate energy when exposed to heat. Typically, the sensors are
approximately 1/4 inch square and take the form of a thin film.
Materials commonly used in PIR sensors include gallium nitride, cesium nitrate
and polyvinyl fluorides.
Specifications
Features
Wide range on input voltage varying from 4.V to 12V (+5V recommended)
Output voltage is High/Low (3.3V TTL)
Can distinguish between object movement and human movement
Has to operating modes - Repeatable(H) and Non- Repeatable(H)
Cover distance of about 120° and 7 meters
Low power consumption of 65mA
Operating temperature from -20° to +80° Celsius
The PIR sensor stands for Passive Infrared sensor. It is a low cost sensor which can
detect the presence of Human beings or animals. This sensor has three output pins Vcc,
Output and Ground as shown in the pin diagram above. Since the output pin is 3.3V TTL
logic it can be used with any platforms like Arduino, Raspberry, PIC, ARM, 8051 etc..
The module can be powered from voltage 4.5V to 20V but, typically 5V is used. Once the
module is powered allow the module to calibrate itself for few minutes, 2 minutes is a
well settled time. Then observe the output on the output pin. Before we analyse the output
we need to know that there are two operating modes in this sensor such as Repeatable(H)
and Non- Repeatable(L) and mode. The Repeatable mode is the default mode.
In Repeatable(H) mode the output pin Dout will go high (3.3V) when a person is detected
within range and goes low after a particular time (time is set by “Off time control”
potentiometer). In this mode the output pin will go high irrespective of whether the
person is still present inside the range or has left the area. The sensitivity can be set using
the “sensitivity control” potentiometer
In “I” mode the output pin Dout will go high (3.3V) when a person is detected within
range and will stay high as long as he/she stays within the limit of the Sensors range.
Once the person has left the area the pin will go low after the particular time which can be
The Uno differs from all preceding boards in that it does not use the FTDI USB-to-serial
driver chip. Instead, it features the Atmega16U2 (Atmega8U2 up to version R2)
programmed as a USB-to-serial converter.
1.0 pinout: added SDA and SCL pins that are near to the AREF pin and two other
new pins placed near to the RESET pin, the IOREF that allow the shields to adapt
to the voltage provided from the board. In future, shields will be compatible both
with the board that use the AVR, which operate with 5V and with the Arduino

"Uno" means one in Italian and is named to mark the upcoming release of Arduino 1.0.
The Uno and version 1.0 will be the reference versions of Arduino, moving forward. The
Uno is the latest in a series of USB Arduino boards, and the reference model for the
Arduino platform; for a comparison with previous versions, see the index of Arduino
boards.

Input Voltage (recommended)7-12V
Input Voltage (limits) 6-20V
Digital I/O Pins 14 (of which 6 provide PWM output)
Analog Input Pins 6
DC Current per I/O Pin 40 mA
DC Current for 3.3V Pin 50 mA
Flash Memory 32 KB (ATmega328) of which 0.5 KB used by bootloader
SRAM 2 KB (ATmega328)
EEPROM 1 KB (ATmega328)
Clock Speed 16 MHz
Power
The Arduino Uno can be powered via the USB connection or with an external power
supply. The power source is selected automatically.
External (non-USB) power can come either from an AC-to-DC adapter (wall-wart) or
battery. The adapter can be connected by plugging a 2.1mm center-positive plug into the
board's power jack. Leads from a battery can be inserted in the Gnd and Vin pin headers
of the POWER connector.
The board can operate on an external supply of 6 to 20 volts. If supplied with less than
7V, however, the 5V pin may supply less than five volts and the board may be unstable. If
using more than 12V, the voltage regulator may overheat and damage the board. The
recommended range is 7 to 12 volts.
Memory
The ATmega328 has 32 KB (with 0.5 KB used for the bootloader). It also has 2 KB of
SRAM and 1 KB of EEPROM (which can be read and written with the EEPROM
library).
Each of the 14 digital pins on the Uno can be used as an input or output,
using pinMode(), digitalWrite(), and digitalRead() functions. They operate at 5 volts.
Each pin can provide or receive a maximum of 40 mA and has an internal pull-up resistor
(disconnected by default) of 20-50 k-Ohms.
The Uno has 6 analog inputs, labeled A0 through A5, each of which provide 10 bits of
resolution (i.e. 1024 different values). By default they measure from ground to 5 volts,
though is it possible to change the upper end of their range using the AREF pin and
the analogReference() function.
Communication
The Arduino Uno has a number of facilities for communicating with a computer, another
Arduino, or other microcontrollers. The ATmega328 provides UART TTL (5V) serial
communication, which is available on digital pins 0 (RX) and 1 (TX).
An ATmega16U2 on the board channels this serial communication over USB and appears
as a virtual com port to software on the computer. The '16U2 firmware uses the standard
USB COM drivers, and no external driver is needed. However, on Windows, a .inf file is
required. The Arduino software includes a serial monitor which allows simple textual
data to be sent to and from the Arduino board. The RX and TX LEDs on the board will
flash when data is being transmitted via the USB-to-serial chip and USB connection to
the computer (but not for serial communication on pins 0 and 1).
A SoftwareSerial library allows for serial communication on any of the Uno's digital pins.
The ATmega328 also supports I2C (TWI) and SPI communication. The Arduino software
includes a Wire library to simplify use of the I2C bus; see the documentation for details.
For SPI communication, use the SPI library.
As Shown in fig 2.6, the communication with this module is done through UART or
RS232 Interface. The data is sent to the module or received from the module though
UART interface.
The module is typically connected to +4.0V standard power supply. It can work on +4.5V
regulated power and any higher voltage may damage the module. And the power source
should be able to deliver a peak current of 2A. The UART interface is established as
shown in figure. All you need to do is connect RXD of module to TXD of Arduino and
TXD is connected to RXD of ARDUINO. The ground of controller and module must be
connected for voltage reference. Here AUDIO IN is connected to MIC and AUDIO OUT
is connected to a speaker or headset. And at last we need to connect a working GSM SIM
card to the module. On powering the module the NETLIGHT LED will blink periodically
to state successful connection.
After all connections are done,we need to write a program for the microcontroller to
exchange data with module. Since data exchange sequence between controller and
module is really complex we will use libraries prewritten for the module. You can
download libraries for controller or module through their websites. Using these libraries
makes the communication easy. All you need to do is download these libraries and call
them in programs. Once the header file is included, you can use simple commands in the
program to tell the controller to send or receive data. The controller sendsthe data to the
module through UART Interface based on protocol setup in libraries. The module sends
this data to another GSM user using cellular network. If the module receives any data
from the cellular network (or another GSM user) it will transmit it to controller through
UART serial communication. This way we can use GSM900A module to establish
cellular connection.

LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen is an electronic display module and find a wide
range of applications. A 16x2 LCD display is very basic module and is very commonly
used in various devices and circuits. These modules are preferred over seven
segments and other multi segment LEDs. The reasons being: LCDs are economical;
easily programmable; have no limitation of displaying special & even custom
characters (unlike in seven segments), animations and so on.
A 16x2 LCD means it can display 16 characters per line and there are 2 such lines. In this
LCD each character is displayed in 5x7 pixel matrix. This LCD has two registers, namely,
Command and Data.
The command register stores the command instructions given to the LCD. A command is
an instruction given to LCD to do a predefined task like initializing it, clearing its screen,
setting the cursor position, controlling display etc. The data register stores the data to be
displayed on the LCD. The data is the ASCII value of the character to be displayed on the

SOFTWARE COMPONENTS
3.1. ARDUINO IDE
An integrated development environment (IDE) is a software application that provides
comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development. An IDE
normally consists of a source code editor, build automation tools and a debugger. Most
modern IDEs have intelligent code completion. The software requirements of the project
make uses of Arduino IDE 1.8.2 version. Arduino is an open source, computer hardware
and software company, project, and user community that designs and manufactures
microcontroller kits for building digital devices and interactive objects that can sense and
control objects in the physical world. The project's products are distributed as open-
source hardware and software, which are licensed under the GNU lesser general public
license (LGPL) or the GNU general public license (GPL), permitting the manufacture of
Arduino boards and software distribution by anyone. It is shown in fig 3.1.

Writing sketches
Programs written using Arduino Software (IDE) are called sketches. These sketches are
written in the text editor and are saved with the file extension .ino. The editor has a
feature of cutting/passing and for searching/replacing text. The message area gives
feedback while saving and exporting and also displays errors. Figure 3.2 shows the
window when we open the Arduino IDE software. The console displays text output by the
Arduino Software (IDE), including complete error messages and other information. The
bottom right hand corner of the window displays the configured board and serial port.
The toolbar buttons allow verifying and uploading programs, creating, opening, and
saving sketches, and open the serial monitor. The toolbar buttons allow verifying and
uploading programs, creating, opening and saving the sketches and open the serial
monitor. Additional commands are found within the five menus: File, Edit, Sketch, Tools
and Help. The menus are context sensitive, which means only those items relevant to the
work currently being carried out are available.

HELP
Here you find easy access to a number of documents that come with the Arduino
Software (IDE). You have access to Getting Started, Reference, this guide to the IDE and
other documents locally, without an internet connection. The documents are a local copy
of the online ones and may link back to our online website.
UPLOADING
Before uploading sketch, we need to select the correct items from the Tools like Board
and Port. The boards are described as COM1 or COM2 for a serial board and COM4,
COM5 and COM or higher for a USB board. To find out this, we have to look for USB
serial device in the ports section of the Windows Device Manager. Once selected the
correct serial port and board, press the upload button in the toolbar or select the Upload
item from the Sketch menu. Current Arduino boards will reset automatically and begin
the upload. On most boards, contains the RX and TX LEDs blink as the sketch is
uploaded. The Arduino Software (IDE) will display a message when the upload is
complete, or show an error. When you upload a sketch, you're using the Arduino boot
loader, a small program that has been loaded on to the microcontroller on your board. It
allows you to upload code without using any additional hardware. The boot loader is
active for a few seconds when the board resets; then it starts whichever sketch was most
recently uploaded to the microcontroller. The boot loader will blink the on-board (pin 13)
LED when it starts (i.e. when the board resets).
Embedded C

5.2 CONCLUSION
The problem of vandalization by wild animals has become a major social problem in the
current time. It requires urgent attention and an effective solution. Thus this project
carries a great social relevance as it aims to address this problem. Hence we have
designed a smart farmland protection and surveillance based system which is low cost
and also consumes more energy. The main aim is to prevent the loss of crops and to
protect the area from intruders and wild animals which pose a major threat to agricultural
areas. Such a system will be helpful o the farmers in protecting their orchards and fields
and save them from significant financial losses and also saves them from unproductive
efforts that they endure for the protection of their fields. This system will also help them
in achieving better crop yields thus leading to their economic wellbeing. We have
presented our smart farmland idea for the security and surveillance purposes. Also, the
techniques used will differentiate regular farmland entries from the intruders. The system
is simple and computationally less intensive as it avoids the use of expensive filters while
achieving better detection results.
For the system installation purpose, this prototype can be further implemented by
using larger range PIR sensors to cover large areas of the land.
By using Image processing techniques, it can distinguish between intruders and
non-intruders, thereby alerting the owner and generating the alarm only when
undesired individual enters the land.
Future projects may incorporate other means of background updating, in order to
compensate possible weaknesses of the algorithm used. In the same light, more
complex tracking algorithms may also be used to address some issues, like fully
handling occlusion and splitting or compensating for the innate weaknesses of
using single-static cameras. These improvements are means towards building a
complete and robust intelligent surveillance system.
