    Abstract:

    Aiming to achieve synergistic perception and joint data collection of pig body temperature and drinking behavior. In view of the low efficiency of traditional body temperature measurement, the inaccurate monitoring of drinking water, and the poor data availability, the implanted RFID temperature chip was applied to the measurement of pig body temperature in centralized pen housing breeding, and the water flow sensor was used for monitoring drinking water behavior. The combination of the two can achieve synergistic perception and joint data collection of pig identity ID, body temperature and drinking behavior. According to the structure of the automatic drinking water bowl for pigs and the scene when drinking water, a wireless monitoring node integrating water collecting flow sensor, RFID reader and ZigBee module was designed, and a monitoring system for automatically measuring pigs body temperature while drinking water was developed. Different experiments were designed for the monitoring of chip implantation depth, body temperature change and drinking water behavior. The experiments results showed that the system can measure the body temperature of different depths of pigs, and automatically monitor different drinking time and drinking water. The automatic association and simultaneous collection of data provided technical support for early warning and diagnosis of pig disease. The system effectively avoided manual operation errors, improved work efficiency, and can meet the fine management requirements of centralized pig farms.
