Design of sewage flow remote monitoring system over GPRS network

Abstract

In this paper, a new sewage flow remote monitoring system over General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) is presented, which monitors the sewage flow parameter remotely in real time. In the proposed system, GPRS network is adopted as the wireless sensor network, and the data between the slave computer and the remote terminal are transmitted via the GPRS and Internet networks. Finally in the remote terminal, the Winsock control of Visual Basic 6.0 is responsible for displaying, storing and analyzing the data of the sewage flow. The system is easy to implement and has a high degree of automation, by which the acquisition, transmission and processing of the sewage flow data can be achieved in wireless, networked and intelligent manners.
