A Spider Monitoring Platform for Water Quality Using the Internet of Things and Mesh Technology

Published:29 May 2020Publication History

ABSTRACT

The quality of water data suggests the physical and environmental conditions of the water. Good management of water resources has been issuing this decade for all sectors, either in the agriculture sector nor in the sanitary or environment sectors. However, traditional water quality checking is guaranteed the data accuracy, but it is an enormous requirement of time and workforce. A disruptive technology of the Internet of Things (IoT) and wireless technology declare the new standard of the data accessing protocol, remotely access the real-time data from everywhere at any time. The water sensors collect the critical parameters of water as the water temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), pH or even electro conductivity (EC). This research proposed a water quality monitoring platform to improved water quality checking in an urban and industrial area; several of the water sensors nodes have been deployed in a natural river. Mesh protocol allows master node and slave nodes to communicate like a spider web. The remarkable output from this study is the node-validation system when the slave node reports the critical data; the master node re-check data using neighbor nodes, to prevent the false-alarm. Therefore, the confirmed contaminated water data send to the server, then it declares the red-spot warning. The proposed spider platform succeeded in increasing the correct data by 30% and decreasing the loss/missing data transmission by 25%.
