[0017] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0018] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0019] The present application provides an environmental monitoring system based on a communication tower, such as Figure 1 As shown, an environmental monitoring system based on a communication tower includes: a monitoring device and a cloud-based integrated management platform, the monitoring device includes a sensor module, a data processing module and a communication module, the sensor module is connected to the data processing module, and the data processing module is connected to the communication module; the monitoring device is installed on a supporting structure through a snap-on design or an adjusting screw, and the supporting structure includes a communication tower.
[0020] The sensor module is used to collect environmental data, the data processing module is used to compress the collected environmental data, and the communication module is used to utilize the communication resources of the communication tower, adopt spectrum sensing and frequency hopping technology to select communication channels and power levels, and transmit the compressed environmental data to the cloud integrated management platform.
[0021] The present application utilizes the communication resources of a communication tower. When the communication module transmits the compressed environmental data to the cloud integrated management platform, it utilizes the communication resources of the communication tower and adopts spectrum sensing and frequency hopping technology to select the communication channel and power level, thereby reducing data interference, ensuring the continuity and stability of data transmission, achieving high-speed and stable data transmission, and ensuring the timeliness and accuracy of information.
[0022] The communication module of this application can automatically identify and access the nearest communication tower network, support multiple wireless communication protocols including but not limited to 4G and 5G, and has adaptive frequency adjustment and power control functions to ensure efficient and stable data transmission.
[0023] In an exemplary embodiment, the communication module integrates advanced spectrum sensing such as energy detection (ED) and frequency hopping technologies such as pseudo-random sequence control, which can automatically select the best communication channel and power level to avoid interference and ensure the continuity and stability of data transmission. At the same time, the communication module supports multiple network standards, such as 4G / 5G, Long Range Radio (LoRa), and Narrow Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT), and automatically switches according to signal strength and network congestion.
[0024] In an exemplary embodiment, the data processing module has built-in primary edge computing capabilities to preprocess and denoise the raw data (including removing sensor noise, smoothing filtering, etc.), use signal processing techniques such as low-pass filtering and median filtering for preliminary screening, and use sparse representation and compressed sensing technologies for compression to reduce invalid data uploads and reduce network burden.
[0025] In order to realize the rapid disassembly of the monitoring equipment, an environmental monitoring system based on a communication tower also includes a locking device and a mounting bracket.
[0026] The following designs are adopted for the locking device, and one of the following three designs is selected according to the actual situation.
[0027] 1) Snap-on design: It includes a pair of external slots and internal protrusions (or vice versa), which are locked together by pressing or rotating. This mechanism allows users to quickly fix the device to a base or other supporting structure without tools, while ensuring a firm and reliable connection.
[0028] 2) Adjustment screws: Some quick-lock devices may be equipped with adjustment screws to fine-tune the horizontal or vertical position of the device to ensure accurate installation. These screws can be manually tightened to increase or decrease pressure to achieve the best fixing effect.
[0029] 3) Spring-loaded mechanism: In some complex designs, the elastic force of the spring is used to assist the locking process. The user only needs to align the position and press lightly to automatically lock it. To release it, a specific unlocking button or lever must be pressed.
[0030] The following design is adopted for the mounting bracket.
[0031] 1) Variable hole design: Universal brackets are usually covered with multiple evenly distributed holes or rails. These holes are compatible with internationally accepted standard screw spacing (such as VESA standards), making it easy to match devices of different sizes and shapes. There is a special load-bearing platform on the communication tower for mounting brackets.
[0032] 2) Universal joint head / ball joint: In order to meet the needs of multi-angle installation, the top of the bracket is often designed with a universal joint head or ball joint, allowing the equipment to freely adjust the angle in three-dimensional space to ensure the best observation or working posture.
[0033] 3) Telescopic arm / folding arm: Some brackets have telescopic or folding functions. Through internal slide rails or hinge structures, the height or extension distance of the equipment can be easily adjusted to adapt to different installation heights or space restrictions.
[0034] 4) Materials and surface treatment: Universal mounting brackets are usually made of lightweight and high-strength metal materials (such as aluminum alloy). The surface is rust-proofed and has appropriate texture design, which not only ensures durability but also makes cleaning and maintenance easy. At the same time, it increases friction during installation to prevent sliding.
[0035] In an exemplary embodiment, a plurality of holes are evenly arranged on the mounting bracket, and the bracket is fixed to the supporting structure through screws and the holes.
[0036] The present application greatly shortens the deployment time of the monitoring system through the locking device and the mounting bracket, and improves the response speed and flexibility to deal with emergencies.
[0037] In terms of compressing the collected environmental data, the data processing module is specifically used to: filter the collected environmental data; compress the filtered environmental data using sparse representation or compressed sensing technology to obtain compressed environmental data.
[0038] In terms of utilizing the communication resources of the communication tower, using spectrum sensing and frequency hopping technology to select the communication channel and power level, and transmitting the compressed environmental data to the cloud integrated management platform, the communication module is specifically used to: utilize a preset optical cable in the communication tower, use spectrum sensing and frequency hopping technology to select the communication channel and power level, and transmit the compressed environmental data to the cloud integrated management platform. The preset optical cable is an optical cable that transmits the compressed environmental data to the cloud integrated management platform. If the compressed environmental data and other data share the optical cable, the compressed environmental data is encrypted by spectrum sensing and frequency hopping technology to reduce the interference of other data on the transmitted data.
[0039] The compressed environmental data is collected in the data processing module and connected to the preset optical cable through the communication module, thereby achieving efficient transmission.
[0040] The cloud-based integrated management platform is used to receive various environmental parameters in the compressed environmental data, and determine whether each environmental parameter exceeds the corresponding threshold range. If it exceeds the corresponding threshold range, an early warning message is issued, for example: if the local temperature rises abnormally, a fire may occur; if the light is insufficient or too strong, light pollution may occur.
[0041] In terms of issuing early warning information, the cloud-based integrated management platform is specifically used to: issue early warnings through at least one channel of text messages, emails and mobile applications. For example, for abnormal ambient temperature warnings, the ambient temperature threshold is set in advance. Once the ambient temperature is exceeded, an early warning is issued via text messages, mobile phone software (APP) push, etc., and adjustment suggestions are provided.
[0042] The cloud integrated management platform stores the received environmental data in a distributed database. It also uses machine learning algorithms (such as random forests and gradient boosting trees) to analyze historical data, generate a data prediction module, perform data prediction, and issue early warnings based on the data prediction results. For example, based on historical ambient temperature data, an ambient temperature prediction module is generated, and the model is continuously iterated based on the ambient temperature collected in real time to improve the prediction accuracy. When the predicted ambient temperature exceeds the ambient temperature threshold, a temperature warning message is issued to prepare for temperature anomalies in advance.
[0043] Sensor network: Based on the LoRa or Zigbee low-power wireless protocol, the sensor nodes and gateways use the standardized IEEE 802.15.4 interface to communicate. The sensor network is a network between communication towers and between communication towers and user terminals.
[0044] Control module: Contains a relay control board, which is connected to actuators such as smart valves, sunshades, and fill lights through the Modbus RTU protocol. The control module is deployed in the machine room under the communication tower. The sunshade is used to shade the monitoring equipment, and the fill light is used to provide supplementary light for the monitoring equipment.
[0045] The monitoring device also includes an energy module, which includes a solar power supply unit and a battery power supply unit, and can automatically switch the energy supply mode according to the ambient light to ensure the long-term stable operation of the monitoring device. The solar power supply unit inputs and outputs energy through the USB-C interface to ensure all-weather power supply.
[0046] This application makes the monitoring equipment highly modular, in which each module adopts international standard interface to achieve plug-and-play function, ensuring that modules from different suppliers can be used interchangeably, greatly improving the compatibility and maintainability of the system.
[0047] The communication module is also used to transmit the working status, health status, performance indicators, configuration information, connection status and data transmission quality of the monitoring equipment to the cloud integrated management platform; the working status includes power-on status, power-off status, operation mode and fault mode; the health status includes physical parameters such as temperature, working voltage and working current, the health status also includes error logs and warning information, the performance indicators include processing speed, response time and load level, the configuration information includes communication protocol, data format and security settings, the connection status includes whether the network is connected and whether the communication link is unobstructed, and the data transmission quality includes bit error rate (BER-Bit Error Rate), throughput (Throughput), delay (Latency), bandwidth (Bandwidth), packet loss rate (Packet Loss Rate), jitter (Jitter), stability, etc.
[0048] The cloud integrated management platform includes a cloud server.
[0049] The cloud server automatically adjusts the monitoring strategy according to environmental changes and equipment health status. When an emergency occurs, the system automatically triggers the emergency response program, quickly dispatches surrounding backup equipment to the affected area, and increases the monitoring density.
[0050] The cloud server implements multi-level early warning. The cloud server establishes multi-level early warning thresholds, from minor reminders to emergency evacuation instructions, to ensure that information is quickly conveyed to relevant departments and individuals through SMS, phone calls, APP push, etc. The early warning logic can be continuously optimized based on historical data analysis to improve the accuracy and timeliness of early warning.
[0051] The cloud-based integrated management platform is used to visually display the environmental parameters, as well as the working status, health status, performance indicators, configuration information, connection status and data transmission quality of the monitoring equipment.
[0052] The cloud integrated management platform includes a user interface, which provides a graphical operation interface for the cloud integrated management platform, and adopts an intuitive dashboard design, so that non-technical personnel can easily grasp the system status and quickly identify key information. Users can customize views as needed to focus on specific areas or parameters.
[0053] The cloud-based integrated management platform supports remote modification of monitoring parameters, updating of software and firmware, and even preliminary diagnosis of equipment failures, reducing the need for on-site maintenance and lowering operating costs. At the same time, the system provides detailed log records and data analysis reports for easy traceability and evaluation.
[0054] The cloud integrated management platform includes a geographic information system, and the geographic information system is used to display the location of each monitoring device in real time.
[0055] The communication module supports the network communication protocols of 4G, 5G, LoRa and NB-IoT.
[0056] The environmental parameters include ambient temperature, ambient humidity, light intensity, wind speed, wind direction and rainfall. Light intensity is the light intensity of natural light monitored by a photoresistor or a spectrometer. Wind speed, wind direction and rainfall are collected by meteorological equipment. Meteorological equipment, photoresistor and spectrometer are all sensor modules.
[0057] The cloud-based integrated management platform in this application is connected to the quick-detachable monitoring device via the Internet, and is responsible for receiving, storing, and processing data transmitted from various monitoring points, providing data analysis, early warning generation, and visualization services; the cloud-based integrated management platform should also have the functions of remotely configuring monitoring device parameters, monitoring device operating status, and fault alarms.
[0058] The cloud-based integrated management platform in this application realizes remote intelligent monitoring, reduces operation and maintenance costs, and improves management efficiency. Through the emergency response mechanism, the prevention and response capabilities of various incidents are effectively improved.
