Book Bluetooth enabled Energy Monitoring System with Wireless Data Acquisition Using Web Server

Download or read book Bluetooth enabled Energy Monitoring System with Wireless Data Acquisition Using Web Server written by Devendra Mahendra Waikul and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The internet of things (IoT) is rapidly becoming part of everyday life. The internet of things can be anything from smart assistants, or smart devices such LED light bulbs, electric outlets to widely used wireless sensor networks. Electrical devices inside any household has potential to become part of wireless mesh network where each device is monitored for their operation and electrical energy consumption. Still, monitoring electric consumption inside a household is still not actively utilized under internet of things. Majority of the houses are equipped with smart energy meters which transmit weekly or monthly power usage to electrical companies. These readings are reflected in the electric bill every month and provide very crude and irrelevant information to pinpoint energy activities in the desired `meshes' of individual rooms of any household and therefore cannot meet the growing expectation and requirements for abundance and accuracy of the data, for efficient electrical energy management. After a comprehensive survey of existing energy monitoring devices and systems, a few technologies have come across which focus either on single device or on overall household. These technologies will not be able to pinpoint every device in a household. Apart from the surface level monitoring, these devices tend to be expensive as they come with subscription and added devices for complete support. To compete with such technologies, an electric energy monitoring system is proposed. This system has three layers of software and hardware components. The first layer is sensors. These sensors make use of existing wireless sensor network mesh technology. Each sensor is a low-cost Bluetooth low energy (BLE) based module which monitors electrical devices. The second layer is gateway. The gateway acts as the middle man between sensor and the third layer which is server. Gateway grabs data from the sensors and translates it to server compatible language package and sends it to the server over a Wi-Fi or internet. The third layer is server. The server is a web application which receives data packet from the gateway and segregates data into different groups according to the information provided in the data packet. The server helps users to locate every sensor in the mesh network so that almost every device monitored inside any house is taken into the consideration. Server does a lot of data processing like finding minimum and maximum energy usage per device, average energy usage as well as live status of the device. With such data processing, server is able to pinpoint high consumption zones, sensor or device malfunction. The processed data can be further processed for application such as approximate electric bill calculations, remote operation of devices, maintenance predictions.
