Standing-wood electric energy and environment parameter measuring device for standing wood

Abstract

Disclosed are standing-wood electric energy and an environment parameter measuring device for standing wood. The device includes a remote data acquisition device, electric-potential-difference acquisition circuits and a soil temperature and humidity sensor. The device is capable of measuring an electric-potential difference between the standing wood and the ground, air temperature and humidity, soil temperature and humidity and light intensity and sending the data to a remote server through a GPRS network. Hardware of the remote data acquisition device includes a single-chip microcomputer module, a sensor and an interface module of the sensor, a wireless communication module and a power module. The single-chip microcomputer module controls other modules to work normally as a control unit of the remote data acquisition device; the sensor and the interface module of the sensor provide an electric-potential difference measurement circuit, an air-temperature measurement circuit, an air relative-humidity measurement circuit, a soil temperature and humidity measurement circuit and an environment light-intensity measurement circuit so that data are acquired and transmitted to the single-chip microcomputer module. The wireless communication module is capable of transmitting the data to the remote server through the GPRS network under the control of the single-chip microcomputer. The power module supplies power to the other modules.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for measuring the electrical energy of standing trees and their environmental parameters. The device can remotely measure the potential difference between the standing trees and the ground, the temperature and humidity of the air near the standing trees, the temperature and humidity of the soil and the intensity of light, and is a bioelectricity measure of the standing trees. Research provides real-time, reliable data. Background technique [0002] Wireless sensor network is an information technology developed in recent years for the collection and monitoring of environmental information, and it has begun to be researched and applied in agricultural and forestry environmental monitoring. However, because the wireless sensor network nodes generally do not need mains power supply, the power supply problem has always been a key problem that has not been well resolved. Since batteries are mainly used for power supply at p...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, because wireless sensor network nodes generally do not use mains power supply, the power supply problem has always been a key problem that has not been well resolved.

However, recent studies have found that there is a continuous and stable potential difference between the living tree and the soil where it grows. If this potential difference can be utilized, it will provide a new solution to the power supply problem of wireless sensor networks.

However, the characteristics and generation mechanism of this kind of living tree bioelectric energy are still unclear, and further research is needed in order to use it more effectively.

The current research mainly acquires data by manual measurement, which has low efficiency, large errors, and poor real-time performance. It is necessary to design a device that can automatically collect relevant data.
