Abstract
A telemetry method and system is mainly used to transmit a short message from a short message from a data center to a far-end controlled device through a cellular phone net. The far-end controlled device starts to search all meter reading reporter devices around it after it receives the short message, and then, builds a Bluetooth connection with each meter reading reporter device to read the readings. Thereafter, the far-end controlled device reports all the readings to the data center after they are all read. Thereby, a new wireless net needs not to be built so that a telemetry cost can be cut down.
Claims12
A telemetry system, mainly comprising:
- a data center for transmitting and receiving a short message command, mainly consisting of a cellular phone and computer, said cellular phone connected with said computer by a data transmission line;
- a far end remote control device, transmitting and receiving a short message command and furnished with Bluetooth function, mainly consisting of a cellular phone module, Bluetooth module, memory and CPU;
- and
- a plurality of reading reporter devices with Bluetooth function, each of said devices mainly consisting a Bluetooth module, memory, CPU and meter;
- wherein, said data center is responsible for transmitting said short message to said far end remote control device, and receiving meter readings of each said reading reporter device reported from said far end remote control device.
A telemetry method, mainly comprising the following steps:
- (1) a data center transmitting a short message command to a far end remote control device;
- (2) said far end remote control device searching all reading reporter devices around it after receiving said short message command;
- (3) said far end remote control device building a Bluetooth connection with a reading reporter device and read a meter readings from said reporter device after said reading reporter device is found;
- (4) said reading reporter device transmitting said readings to said far end remote control device;
- (5) said far end remote control device disconnecting said Bluetooth connection after said reading is read;
- and
- (6) said far end remote control device reporting all said readings to said data center after said far end remote control device reads all said reading values in all said reading reporter devices.
