Abstract
Monitoring system is widely used to detect the environment parameters such as temperature, humidity and position information in cold chain logistic, modern agriculture, hospital and so on. Poor position precision, high communication cost, high packet loss rate are the main problems in current monitoring system. To solve these problems, the paper presents a new monitoring system based on Narrow Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT) and BeiDou system/Global System Position (BDS/GPS) dual-mode positioning. Considering the position precision, a dual-mode positioning circuit based on at6558 is designed, and the calculation formula of the positioning information of the monitored target has been derived. Subsequently, a communication network based on wh-nb75-ba NB-IoT module is designed after compared with the LoRa technology. According to the characteristics of high time correlation of sensor data, an adaptive optimal zero suppression (AOZS) compression algorithm is proposed to improve the efficiency of data transmission. Experiments prove the feasibility and effectiveness of the system from the aspects of measurement accuracy, positioning accuracy and communication performance. The temperature and humidity error are less than 1 °C and 5% RH respectively with the selected sensor chips. The position error is decided by several factors, including the number of satellites used for positioning, the monitored target moving speed and NB-IoT module lifetime period. When the monitored target is stationary, the positioning error is about 2 m, which is less than that of the single GPS or BDS mode. When the monitored target moves, the position error will increase. But the error is still less than that of the single GPS or BDS mode. Then the AOZS compression algorithm is used in actually experiment. The compression ratio (CR) of it is about 10% when the data amount increasing. In addition, the packet loss rate test experiment proves the high reliability of the proposed system.
