Integrated meter reading method and system

Abstract

The invention discloses an integrated meter reading method and system. The method comprises the steps that: a remote server transmits a meter reading instruction to an electric meter to which a targetinstrument belongs through an LTE230 power private network, and the meter reading instruction carries the equipment information of the target instrument; the electric meter sends the meter reading instruction to the target instrument through LoRa communication after waking up the target instrument according to the meter reading instruction; the target instrument returns corresponding instrument data to the electric meter through LoRa communication according to the meter reading instruction; and the electric meter sends the instrument data to the remote server through the LTE230 power privatenetwork. According to the invention, the real-time data acquisition and state monitoring can be carried out on the instrument, the implementation cost is low, and the system is safe, reliable and easyto maintain.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to mobile communication technology, in particular to an integrated meter reading method and system. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of cities and large-scale population migration, the scale of urban high-rise residential buildings has become larger and larger, the number of water meters, electricity meters and gas meters has increased sharply, and manual meter reading has become more and more difficult. How to timely, accurately and effectively copy the huge and scattered water meters, electricity meters and gas meters has become an urgent problem for various management departments. As the scale of water meters, electricity meters and gas meters continues to expand, the disadvantages of manual meter reading are becoming more and more prominent, mainly in the following aspects: manual door-to-door meter reading is inefficient and labor-intensive; it is impossible to find out in time that us...

Problems solved by technology

However, its equipment is expensive, and it needs to pay traffic fees every month, so the actual use cost is high

[0008] In addition, in the above automatic meter reading schemes (2) and (3), the process of data collection and transmission consumes a lot of power, which is a bottleneck for battery-powered gas meters and water meters

[0009] It can be seen that the existing meter reading scheme has problems such as safety, low reliability, difficult equipment maintenance or high cost of use.
