- Abstract:
- In order to improve the routine of water quality monitoring and reduce the risk of accidental or deliberate contaminations, this paper presents, the development of low cost and durable on-line water quality system includes multi-parameter sensors, acquisition card, communication system and another accessories. These sensors can be installed across water distribution networks within an interface to control the continuous flow and pressure of the large volume water samples (rivers, lakes). The flow water is made through a channel which is designed on one side of this interface. In our system, we propose to use the small satellite technology offered by the international spatial project such as HumSat. Data collected by various sensors such as temperature, pH, and turbidity are sent via bluetooth to bluetooth-UHF Bridge which is equipped with a Bluetooth module, memory, microcontroller, modulator, transceiver and UHF antenna. The bridge is responsible for the satellite communication. A novel WSN architecture was proposed.
