SoWiSys Wireless-based Solar String Current
Monitoring System in Solar Parks
Introduction
SoWiSys consists of a large array of nodes, one per string. Each node measures the
respective string current with high accuracy at regular intervals. The node then
transmits the string current along with the node address wirelessly to a Central Node,
located within the Solar Park. The Central Node can interface to the SCADA system of
the Solar Park for centralized monitoring of the string performance over time.
Alternatively, the Central Node can connect to the Internet and continuously transmit
the string current data to a web-based server for monitoring from a remote location.
Features
Measures Individual String Currents with high accuracy, +/- 100 mA
Measurement Interval is Programmable, can be as low as 1 minute.
Robust Wireless Network based on Mesh Topology
Network made of Large number of Wireless nodes (up to several hundred)
License-free, Custom RF based Wireless design
Each node is powered by one of the Solar panels in the string itself
Design does NOT use Battery, and does not require periodic maintenance
