BYON让农田按农时灵活用网，解决农村缺宽带难题。
BYON: Bring Your Own Networks for Digital Agriculture Applications
- 按农事周期动态部署网络，随作物生长移动覆盖
- 利用CBRS和卫星网络，在农场形成时空可变的高速连接区
- 新网关能感知作物位置，自动优化信号覆盖
数字农业依赖传感器、无人机、机器人和自主农机提升产量并推动可持续实践。然而，农村地区宽带匮乏严重制约了技术应用。我们指出，农业应用无需永久在线连接，其使用具有明显的季节性规律，对连接的需求在时间和空间上高度集中。为此，我们提出BYON，一种面向高带宽农业应用的新连接模型，依托新兴的公民宽带无线电服务（CBRS）和卫星网络。BYON实现灵活的连接方案，可随农场作业移动，构建动态的时空连接区域。该系统包含新型网关设计，能感知作物存在并优化农业场景下的信号覆盖。我们在实际农场环境中评估了BYON，验证了其有效性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Digital agriculture technologies rely on sensors, drones, robots, and autonomous farm equipment to improve farm yields and incorporate sustainability practices. However, the adoption of such technologies is severely limited by the lack of broadband connectivity in rural areas. We argue that farming applications do not require permanent always-on connectivity. Instead, farming activity and digital agriculture applications follow seasonal rhythms of agriculture. Therefore, the need for connectivity is highly localized in time and space. We introduce BYON, a new connectivity model for high bandwidth agricultural applications that relies on emerging connectivity solutions like citizens broadband radio service (CBRS) and satellite networks. BYON creates an agile connectivity solution that can be moved along a farm to create spatio-temporal connectivity bubbles. BYON incorporates a new gateway design that reacts to the presence of crops and optimizes coverage in agricultural settings. We evaluate BYON in a production farm and demonstrate its benefits.
