Abstract

"Al Based Smart Meter for Water Utilization and Quality Monitoring Using IoT" Due to the drawback highlighted in the existing system, there should be a meter which can overcome allthis drawbacks and this can be done by installing our Smart Water Meter in your building/Apartment. Smart Water Meter which provides the water consumption details (with the help of water flow sensor) andchecks if any leakage detection and quality of water(Turbidity sensor) can be checked. we can check all this things with the help of our website and with our App, both are developed to check the consumption details and we can make an billing through the website/App and we can monitor the quality of water also through this website/App and the details can be exported to the excelsheet and we can analyze the consumption of water on monthly basis according to requirements of the user and main admin can check the consumption of each house holders in the Apartment/building by using their login credentials and the house holders can check their water consumption details with help of their login credentials which will be provided by the main admin while installing this Smart Water Meter. And if any waste water is entered through the valve it will be detected by our smart meter and the indication will be sent to the App as a pop-up message and eventually user can use that water if heneeded or else he can stop that water or else water can be exited in other exit valve. And in the same manner if any leakage is found anywhere in the connection(pipe) Smart Meter will show the indication with the help of website/App to the user by sending the pop-up and then the actioncan be taken, by the respective users(house holders).

THERE IS ONE PAGE OF DESCRIPTION ONLY DISCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
" To provide clear consumption patterns which can help customers to track and control theirwater usage. • To improve active leakage targeting and leak detection capability. • To explore the deep features relevant to the internet of things and cloud computing in orderto overcome distance and constraints of wired communication systems used in existing method. • The proposed Smart meter helps consumers to pay bills online, help in tracking waterleakage and water consumption in large water pipeline network.
The proposed method, design and its implementation are discussed. Here weare going to discuss about the experimental results of our Smart Water Meter, in the above chapters we have discussed about the hardware and software requirements but now in this chapter we are going to discuss about hardware connections and we are going to see how the data is been transferred to the website and how it is displayed in which we can see the consumption data with time/date and we can see the turbidity level of the water and we can find the leakage of the waterif it exist in the pipe.
And we can export/download the overall consumption data in the excel csv format and then wecan predict the upcoming months bill amount, individual user will get all this information in the device history from the website/app.
Next from the action option user will get all the information like leakage exist or not and whether the entry/exit valve is on or off, it will show its working state/condition.
Once user know about their water consumption bill Amount (if they click on the payment option) they can pay their water bill by click on pay now option and they can make a payment from the options available.
In this way user can track their individual water consumption data and they can check whether there is any leakage in the pipe within the Smart water meter connection and user can check whether the water is capable of drinking or not if the water is contaminated then our smart meter(turbidity sensor is used to check the purity of water) will send the pop-up message to particular user and then they can take the action and then the contaminated water will exit fromthe exit valve, user will get all this information from the website/app only if they log-in with their provided credentials.
