The present application relates to the technical field of
wireless communication, and in particular to a
smart water meter supporting dual-mode communication and a
data synchronization method thereof. The method comprises: obtaining communication jam values of a plurality of
smart water meters, wherein the communication jam value is used to represent the communication jam degree between the corresponding
smart water meter and the management platform; performing screening
processing based on the communication jam values of each smart water meter to determine a first smart water meter and a second smart water meter; controlling the first smart water meter to transmit data to the management platform in a first communication mode; determining a first coordination water meter among the plurality of second smart water meters, and controlling the first coordination water meter to transmit data of all second smart water meters to the management platform, wherein the first coordination water meter is one of the plurality of second smart water meters, and the data of the second smart water meter is reported to the first coordination water meter in a second communication mode. The present application can improve the reliability of
data synchronization.
