Outline • Two applications • Smart Buoys • Smart water meters • Smart gas meters Nikica Mikulandra
Smart Buoys Nikica Mikulandra
Summary • Motivation • SB: SmartBuoys project • Interesting application for all nautical destinations • Objective • Application description • Application requirements • Challenges NikicaMikulandra
Opportunity • 99,99% of mooring buoys areso far “manually” operated • Mooring with buoys VS “free” mooring • Organized mooring • Environmentally more friendly • Possibility of automation • No real-time monitoring of existing mooring buoys • Ad hoc tracking and inspection only at choke points (RFID) Nikica Mikulandra
Application challenges • All kind of possible different user vessels • Minimum maintanance costs • Features • Ensure secure mooring • Ensure real time monitoring • Prevent loss of buoys • Ensure payment of service • Reduce cost • Improve customer service NikicaMikulandra
About Smart Buoys • Have to ensure secure mooring for different kind ofvessels • In the seawater for whole year • All electronics insidebatteryoperated • Severaldifferentsensorsincluded Nikica Mikulandra
Monitoring communication technologies • Satellite communication • Advantage: global coverage • Disadvantage: expensive • GSM • Advantage: often good coverage • Disadvantage: expensive • Others • none Nikica Mikulandra
Application requirements Sensors: GPS Temp Vibration Intrusion Connection • Real Time Monitoring • Good coverage • Low infrastructure cost • Low operational cost • Ability to install node inside buoys • Battery life: > 1 year • Includes variety of sensors in same node (seewatertemperature, waterinsidebuoy, vesselconnected) • severalsquaremilescoveragewithhundredsofbuoys • Access point connected to backhaul –> SCADA LAN TCP/IP backhaul Access Point Transmitterinsidebuoy Nikica Mikulandra
Water/ gas meters Nikica Mikulandra
Summary • Motivation • Water/ Gas Meters • Basic project for Smart Grid implementation • Objective • Application description • Application requirements • Challenges Nikica Mikulandra
Opportunity • €100B industry • Over 60% of present meters are not smart yet • EU regulation: all meters have to smart by year 2020 • Problems with existing technologies • There is no acctepted standard Nikica Mikulandra
Application challenges • Bidirectionalcommunicationbetweensystemandmeter • Large number of meterswithin urban areas • Largeareaofcoverage for ruralareas • Features • Monthly, daily, 15-min measuring • Measuring on demand • Dynaamicpricing • Reduce cost • Improve customer service Nikica Mikulandra
About SmartMeters • Precise measurement of consumed water / gas • Communicationcapabilities • Dynamicpricingcapabilities, differenttariffs Nikica Mikulandra
Meteringcommunication technologies • PLC (Power Line Communication) • Advantage: low PLC module cost • Disadvantage: technologyproblems • GSM • Advantage: oftengoodcoverage • Disadvantage: expensive infrastructureandoperationalcosts • Others • Deployments with Euridis, ZigBee Nikica Mikulandra
