This study proposes an enhanced multi-agent swarm control algorithm (EN-MASCA) to solve the problem of efficient patrolling of drone swarms in complex durian orchard environments. It introduces a virtual navigator model to dynamically adjust the patrol path of the drone swarm and perform obstacle avoidance and path optimization in real time according to environmental changes. Different from traditional algorithms that only rely on fixed path planning, the virtual navigator model significantly improves the flexibility and stability of the drone swarm in complex environments. It also applies deep reinforcement learning algorithms to path planning and obstacle avoidance of drone swarms for the first time, improving the algorithm’s adaptability and optimization capabilities by learning dynamic information in complex environments. This innovation significantly improves the applicability of existing methods in complex terrain and dynamic obstacle environments. Finally, it incorporates the simulation characteristics of biological swarm behavior, and on this basis, comprehensively optimizes the flight path, obstacle avoidance and swarm stability of the drone swarm. By improving control strategies and parameter design, it improves the trajectory consistency and mission completion efficiency of the UAV swarm during flight. In the experimental part, this study verified in detail the advantages of the EN-MASCA algorithm in terms of flight trajectory, flight stability, cluster consistency and task completion efficiency by constructing a six-degree-of-freedom UAV motion simulation model and real environment simulation. It provides an efficient and intelligent solution for collaborative patrol operations of drones in durian orchards, which has important practical application value and promotion prospects.

Greenhouse cultivation technology has greatly contributed to the development of agriculture in Malaysia. Understanding how to monitor the greenhouse environment with high efficiency and low power consumption is particularly important. In this research, a wireless sensor network for agricultural greenhouses based on the improved Zigbee protocol is designed. Its hardware consists of various sensors and Zigbee nodes commonly used in agricultural greenhouses. On the basis of this hardware, this research designed the network topology of WMN (Wireless mesh network) by comparing the advantages and disadvantages of various topologies, and combined with this structure, proposed an improved ZigBee routing protocol EMP-ZBR to solve the question regarding energy loss and the network congestion of wireless networks. After testing EMP-ZBR and traditional Zigbee routing protocols, the improved EMP-ZBR protocol is superior to traditional Zigbee routing in terms of the end-to-end average delay, packet delivery rate, routing control overhead and routing discovery frequency, which were optimized about 1.1%, 15.2%, 15.2%, 8.1 ms in different mobile pause times, and 9.8%, 19.3%, 15.7% and 121 ms in different packet sending rates. The agreement proves that EMP-ZBR can more effectively alleviate the impact of congestion and improve the overall performance of the data monitoring system for agricultural greenhouses.

WSN (wireless sensor network) plays a very important role in the agricultural environment monitoring. Although solar energy and other power supply methods are used to solve the node energy problem, the monitoring equipment works outdoors for a long time, which is easily affected by the environment. The supply is unstable to cause abnormalities in some nodes. So this study proposes a ZIRRA algorithm (ZigBee immune routing repair algorithm) for the rechargeable agricultural WSN. It simulates the working mechanism of the immune system and designs modules such as identification, processing, cloning and storage, which can provide a better repair strategy for abnormal nodes. Then it compares the quality of the backup nodes and replaces the backup nodes with poor quality, so that the optimal paths are maintained between source nodes and middle relay nodes, which increases the optimization ability of the algorithm. The experimental results show that the ZIRRA algorithm shows significant advantages in routing node repair mechanism. Compared with the LFRA, AR-TORA and ICCO algorithms, the average routing energy consumption of the ZIRRA algorithm reduced 35.33%, 58.37% and 45.15% , the data transmission delay reduced by 23.72%, 36.74% and 16.28%, and the average node survival time extended 25.08%, 33.55% and 13.88%. In addition, the maximum communication time and network throughput of the ZIRRA algorithm increased 44.49% and 13.03% at the scale of 1000 to 2000 nodes. These quantitative results show that the ZIRRA algorithm can improve the energy efficiency, transmission reliability and stability. The ZIRRA algorithm draws on the working principle of the immune system and repairs abnormal nodes through identification, processing, cloning and storage modules. Unlike the traditional node repair algorithms, the ZIRRA algorithm has higher efficiency and accuracy in identifying and processing abnormal nodes through the improved clone tracking algorithm. It uses an improved clone tracking algorithm in the learning module, improves the cloning and mutation mechanisms, and generates the optimal antibodies for repairing abnormal nodes. It also integrates an adaptive energy management strategy to cope with fluctuations in energy levels by prioritizing the transmission of critical data and reducing the frequency of non-essential communications, which improves the network stability and data transmission reliability.

The agricultural WSN (wireless sensor network) has the characteristics of long operation cycle and wide coverage area. In order to cover as much area as possible, farms usually deploy multiple monitoring devices in different locations of the same area. Due to different types of equipment, monitoring data will vary greatly, and too many monitoring nodes also reduce the efficiency of the network. Although there have been some studies on data fusion algorithms, they have problems such as ignoring the dynamic changes of time series, weak anti-interference ability, and poor processing of data fluctuations. So in this study, a data fusion algorithm for optimal node tracking in agricultural wireless sensor networks is designed. By introducing the dynamic bending distance in the dynamic time warping algorithm to replace the absolute distance in the fuzzy association algorithm and combine the sensor’s own reliability and association degree as the weighted fusion weight, which improved the fuzzy association algorithm. Finally, another three algorithm were tested for multi-temperature sensor data fusion. Compare with the kalman filter, arithmetic mean and fuzzy association algorithm, the average value of the improved data fusion algorithm is 29.5703, which is close to the average value of the other three algorithms, indicating that the data distribution is more even. Its extremely bad value is 8.9767, which is 10.04%, 1.14% and 9.85% smaller than the other three algorithms, indicating that it is more robust when dealing with outliers. Its variance is 2.6438, which is 2.82%, 0.65% and 0.27% smaller than the other three algorithms, indicating that it is more stable and has less data volatility. The results show that the algorithm proposed in this study has higher fusion accuracy and better robustness, which can obtain the fusion value that truly feedbacks the agricultural environment conditions. It reduces production costs by reducing redundant monitoring devices, the energy consumption and improves the data collection efficiency in wireless sensor networks.

China is the largest producer of greenhouse vegetables, but the closed environment fosters high pest and disease incidence. This study proposes an improved AlexNet (IM-AlexNet) model incorporating ReLU6, batch normalization, and GoogleNet Inception-v3 to enhance pest and disease identification. Experimental results show that the IM-AlexNet model is better than the traditional model in indicators such as Precision, Recall, F1, and MAP. Specifically, its MAP value is 88.91%, which is 10.77, 8.6, and 5.14% higher than the AlexNet, CNN, and YOLO-v7 models, which shows stronger generalization capabilities under small sample conditions. It demonstrates strong generalization, reduced missed detection, and improved target recognition in complex backgrounds. This model offers a valuable tool for greenhouse vegetable growers to monitor pests and diseases intelligently, reduce pesticide use, and improve environmental sustainability. The findings provide a foundation for further research in agricultural pest management.
