The prototype of an acoustic communication device for monitoring of water distribution networks
Journal Title: Aparatura Badawcza i Dydaktycza - Year 2019, Vol 24, Issue 1
Abstract
A plethora of monitoring systems of different technical objects exists nowadays. Some of the solutions are specifically designed for water supply networks. The main objective of the paper is to describe the use of acoustic signal modules for communication in pipeline systems, where water is used as the trans- mission medium. This idea is proposed as an alternative to methods used in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) nowadays. The paper begins with short introduction to the research problem and WSNs in gen- eral. Further sections describe the concept of a node, methods of signal modulation and coding used during the research and a brief description of acoustic node prototype. Results of the preliminary tests together with the major conclusions and future research plans are discussed at the end of the paper.
