Abstract

The existing water monitoring system of India is incapable to regulate the excessive water flow which leads to potential water wastage. The overpopulation, unrestrictive water supply, irregular monitoring, and lack of awareness are the major hurdles for the deployment of smart water system (SWS) in India. In this state of the art, we present a simulation-based work to monitor the water flow in accordance with the demand for water by several regions. In our experiment, we have designed a protocol which regulates water flow according to the priority value. The proposed priority-based water distribution (PWD) protocol executes through two phases. The initial phase assigns priority values to the geographical belts like an emergency belt (EB), residential belt (RB), and industrial belt (IB) by the utility center (UC). In the second phase, we install a sensor-based smart valve which is regulated by the UC corresponding to the priority values of several belts. This novice method is addressing one of the open challenges of smart water grid (SWG), i.e., data analytics over wireless communications.
