Abstract
This paper presents the design of a wireless building monitoring network implemented at the University of Nottingham's Creative Energy Homes test site. The network is installed in seven smart buildings with the aim of holistically collecting energy data. Data will be used to inform a central control algorithm to optimise the energy flows between buildings, in turn promoting the smart cities concept. Sensors and meters measuring temperature, humidity, CO2, heat energy, power, and stratified tank temperature are described. Furthermore, the communication protocols utilised are also discussed, which include wireless MBus and EnOcean. This paper also covers the methods used for ensuring the reliability of data signals and the system controls.
