The invention provides a prepaid
electricity-utilization
control system based on a
wireless multi-hop network, which comprises a remote controller, a plurality of
wireless prepaid electronic electric-energy meters, an
electricity-selling
machine, a
wireless multi-hop
concentrator and an upper computer. The remote controller communicates with the wireless pre-
payment electronic electric-energy meters or the
electricity-selling
machine by means of the
infrared rays. The interface of the electricity-selling
machine is connected with the
communication interface of the upper computer. The serial interfaces of the upper computer are interconnected via a GPRS module. The GPRS module communicates with the wireless multi-hop
concentrator. The wireless multi-hop
concentrator communicates with the plurality of wireless pre-paid electronic electric-energy meters respectively via a NRF905 wireless communications module. Compared with the prior art, the prepaid electricity-utilization
control system has the advantages of scientific and novel design, good flexibility and
accessibility in selling electricity, easy use and accurate operation. Additionally, the prepaid electricity-utilization
control system has the advantages of high electricity-selling efficiency, strong practicability, compact overall structure, low
material consumption, long service life, low cost, stable and reliable performance, and convenient maintenance; and is applicable to the promotion and application in
electric power sectors.
