Description

Technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a remote water meter system, in particular to an intelligent remote water meter system based on a Zigbee network. Background technique

[0002] With the rapid development of information technology and electronic technology in recent years, it has become possible to design and implement a smart water meter with communication, low power consumption, accurate and convenient measurement.

[0003] For a long time, the water meters used by urban residents in our country are generally ordinary mechanical rotary-wing wet water meters. This type of water meter is cheap and has relatively stable performance, but it also uses manual meter reading and household charging. This method has disadvantages such as large workload, long charging cycle, difficulty in charging, and low efficiency. In the long run, with the advancement of sensor technology and the deepening of industrial applications, various high-end flowmeter technologies, such as ultras...

Embodiment Construction

[0028] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments, which are for explanation rather than limitation of the present invention.

[0029] The Zigbee network used in the present invention is a low-cost wireless networking technology. It is a short-distance, low-cost, low-power, low-rate wireless communication technology, and is mainly suitable for automatic control and remote control fields. It is embedded in various devices and supports geolocation functions. The low cost and low power consumption of Zigbee technology are its biggest advantages. For example, the price of hardware supporting the Zigbee protocol is less than 50 yuan, and the average operating current of the integrated chip is only more than 10 milliamperes, and its power consumption is still less than an 8-bit microcontroller.

[0030] The present invention implements an organic structure of Zigbee wireless communication mode, GPRS wireless communication mode...
