This paper deals with the Wireless Sensor Network comportment in the south west region precisely Bechar city. Algeria has the highest technical and economic potentials for solar power exploitation in the Middle East and North Africa region. In this paper, the focus is on the behaviour of Wireless Sensor Network (WSNs) supplied by solar panel PV connected to node via boost converter (DC/DC) controlled by maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique, using the incremental conductance (IC) algorithm to extract maximum power. In Our present work, many tests were carried out. The WSNs are examined under sever and different temperature and irradiation variation. The obtained result is satisfactory for our (WSNs) simulated in a MATLAB / SIMULINK environment. The performances of the proposed strategy controller give a satisfactory simulation results.

This document explains how to determine the power supply programs of WSN in environmental monitoring. The power consumption of Wireless sensor networks node in environmental monitor is estimated. The characteristics of several battery and super capacitor are analyzed; feasibility of long-term and stable power supply to the node is proofed. Different power supply programs are given according to the requirements of the working time and cost performance. The program which uses solar cells with maximum power point tracking technology, and use super-capacitor to store energy, is probed mainly. The circuit is design .It is tried in field.
