The pervasive computing concept aims the development of solutions for better perception of events in interest areas. Since 90's, scientific efforts are being applied on the development of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) technologies and applications such as environmental monitoring, surveillance, and security. More recently, industrial and commercial applications demanded advances on object identification and then RFID technology has emerged. Clearly, the RFID technology, initially applied to indoor solutions, can be combined with common outdoor WSN solutions in order to provide a better monitoring system. This fact is shown in this work by proposing a model for heterogeneous architecture to be applied on animal monitoring applications.
