Abstract:
Telecom industry is amongst the biggest industries. We cannot afford any outage of
power especially in a country where energy crisis is a big problem. BTS power
monitoring and alarm system is a system which will monitor the three main power
sources of a BTS which are AC grid (WAPDA), UPS and Generator. The system
while monitoring the power sources saves the data in the database. The system
comprise of the power monitoring circuit, microcontroller, LCD, relay switching,
voice interfacing IC, filter and GSM module. The system is supplied with power
sources, when any one of the power source goes out the system sends a text message
to the supervisor. When all the power sources goes out the system generates a call to
the supervisor and a voice message is played that the BTS is out of power. The
database saves the data after every minute and the number of the supervisor is fed into
the system when a certain code is being texted by the number of supervisor to the
system. This system saves time and energy of the people responsible for maintaining
the BTS because the manual control is minimum.
