Problems solved by technology

[0005] (1) The traditional measurement device is a single-point measurement device. With the increase of measurement points, the measurement system will become complicated and increase the measurement cost;
[0006] (2) Since oil and gas wells have a large amount of corrosive liquid, the detection end of the conventional measuring device is in direct contact with the well fluid, so it is difficult to place it downhole for a long time, and real-time online measurement of downhole temperature and pressure in oil and gas fields cannot be realized;
[0007] (3) The traditional measurement device needs to stop production of the oil well to measure, which affects the production efficiency of the oil field, and its measurement data cannot reflect the real parameters in the production process;
[0008] (4) At present, the measurement device needs electrical signals to transmit the measurement data. Due to the interference of the underground electromagnetic environment, the data measurement has errors
