Soil moisture sensor and read-out circuit topology for large array deployment.

This paper focuses on the analysis of a BJT based soil moisture sensor that outputs a voltage corresponding to the change in soil resistance. The measured sensor’s sensitivity is 51.1mV/% with a deviation of 19.7mV from sensor to sensor. The deviation which is more than twice smaller than the sensit...
