Application of Wireless Sensor Network in Shipping Laterite Nickel Ore Moisture Content Monitoring

Abstract:

This paper applies wireless sensor network to the shipping laterite nickel ore moisture content monitoring, and design a set of real-time monitoring of lateritic nickel ore moisture content monitoring system in the process of actual transportation, and formulate a specific implementation plan. According to the structure of laterite nickel ore bulk carriers and the characteristics of the wireless sensor network, this paper also solve the design and layout problems of wireless sensor nodes, the problems of energy saving and data transmission from the inside cabin to the outside, etc. In addition, the system has strong portability, and can be used for monitoring in other related fields.
