Prototype of monitoring system for the use of PDAM water debit based on wireless sensor network

In this modern era just like today, information delivery technology is growing rapidly, especially information delivery through internet. Internet of Things (IoT) is estimated to grow from 40% in 2014 to 70% in 2019. Internet of Things (IoT) itself widely applied in industrial field, engineering, and communication. One of many applications which could be optimized is the use of PDAM water debit monitoring with purpose to create transparency between service providers with service users about how many water debit which has been used by costumers. Besides IoT, in this system, water flow sensor is also applied as digital water debit counter. And wireless sensor network (WSN) is used to decrease the wire installation cost. Also in this system, multi-hop algorithm is used to increase the wireless communication distance. In addition, in this system, solar cell is used to make the energy supply last longer.
