Development of an IoT-Based GSM Signal Strength and Meteorological Parameters Monitoring Device
Abstract
Abstract- Subscribers to mobile networks in developing nations like Nigeria are not satisfied with the quality of service that is provided by their GSM service operators. Also, the GSM operators have challenges too. This study is aimed at developing a portable and low-cost electronic device that is not readily available locally in the nation to address these identified issues. The developed device consists of subsystems such as a sensing unit, a microcontroller unit, a display unit, an IoT data storage unit, and a power supply unit. GSM modules are used to detect the received signal strength in dBm of Nigerian GSM networks (MTN, Glo, Airtel, and 9mobile or Etisalat). Simultaneously, sensors in the circuit track meteorological parameters (temperature, pressure, relative humidity, and UV index) and air pollutants (methane) in the research location. Thereafter, the real-time data of the GSM modules and sensors is extracted by microcontroller. Then the retrieved data is displayed on the LCD module and it is also uploaded to the IoT analytical platform via WiFi in real-time. The IoT features give visualization in the form of graphs and enable the user to access the data storage using an internet facility from any remote location in the world. Also, the system gives room for monitoring, radio planning, and further study of the large volume of data that is generated with time such as the relationship between the received signal strength and the meteorological parameters, the air pollutants, or both.
