How to accurately, real-time and effectively read the huge and scattered water use information has become an urgent problem for water companies and related departments to solve. Traditional manual meter reading requires reading water meters door to door, and meter readers need to tediously enter data into the water system before generating bills. Its disadvantages are becoming more and more obvious, mainly manifested in: the labor intensity of meter readers is too high, and the living conditions of users are limited, such as remote areas are not conducive to meter reading, and the situation of wrong and missed meter reading is serious, which consumes huge manpower and material resources, water use information cannot be fed back in time, and it is inconvenient for users to pay. Today, with the gradual popularization of intelligent informatization, traditional manual meter reading can no longer adapt to the development of society, and smart water meters will become the trend of the future.

[0003] The following problems exist in the design process of interconnecting and forwarding data for users in a district or even a city: First, unlike the design of smart electric meters, the water meter dial space can only accommodate batteries, and the power consumption problem is a priority issue in the field of smart water meters.

The communication method for a smart water meter in a multi-meter centralized reading system can ensure the security of data during transmission through the use of encryption in data transmission, avoid human tampering, make the final data different from the original data when used, improve the overall security of use, and compare the acquired real-time data with the previous data through the use of comprehensive judgment, ensure the rationality of the data, avoid abnormal data, and improve the versatility during use.
