Abstract

This work describes system engineering of an internet-of-things (IoT) connectivity and satellite data transfer for a pico-hydroelectric power generation system. The system is developed for deployment in remote villages in the Nepal Himalayas. The IoT devices are sensors attached to various points in the system which monitor critical system performance metrics such as generator vibrations and output voltage and control important functions. The data is transmitted from IoT devices using Zigbee. The data is then transmitted to the Iridium satellite system so it can be available to an international team of researchers who developed and monitor the performance of the system. This allows for optimization and performance improvements with the goal of perfecting the system so it can be implement in other villages. This work describes the system, why it is needed, and the hardware. The result is an IoT enabled monitoring system with real time data transmitted using satellites.

为偏远的喜马拉雅村庄提供物联网支持的微水力发电和卫星回传

本工作描述了微型水力发电系统的物联网(IoT)连接和卫星数据传输的系统工程。该系统是为部署在尼泊尔喜马拉雅山脉的偏远村庄而开发的。物联网设备是连接到系统中各个点的传感器，用于监控关键系统性能指标，如发电机振动和输出电压，并控制重要功能。数据使用Zigbee从物联网设备传输。然后，这些数据被传输到铱星系统，以便一个开发和监测该系统性能的国际研究小组可以使用这些数据。这允许优化和性能改进，目标是完善系统，以便在其他村庄实施。本工作描述了该系统，为什么需要它，以及硬件。其结果是一个物联网监控系统，通过卫星传输实时数据。
