Abstract

The need for an environmental monitoring system that obtains and provides environmental information in real time is increasing. In particular, in the case of water quality management in public waters, regular management must be conducted through manual and automatic measurement by law, and air pollution also requires regular measurement and management to reduce fine dust and exhaust gas in connection with the realization of carbon neutrality. In this study, we implemented a system that can measure and monitor water pollution and air pollution information in real time. A hovercraft capable of moving on land and water simultaneously was used as a measurement tool. Water quality measurement and air pollution measurement sensors were installed on the hovercraft body, and a communication module was installed to transmit the information to the monitoring system in real time. The structure of a hovercraft for environmental measurement was designed, and a LoRa module capable of low-power, long-distance communication was applied as a real-time information transmission communication module. The operational performance of the proposed system was confirmed through actual hardware implementation.

환경정보를 실시간으로 획득하여 정보를 제공하는 환경 모니터링 시스템 필요성이 확대되고 있다. 특히 공공수역 수질관리의 경우 법적으로 수동측정과 자동측정을 통해 상시 관리를 진행해야 하며, 대기오염도 탄소중립 실현과 연관하여 미세먼지, 배기가스 저감을 위한 상시 측정 및 관리가 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 수질오염 및 대기오염 정보를 실시간으로 측정하여 모니터링을 할 수 있는 시스템을 구현하였다. 측정을 위한 도구로 육상과 수상을 동시에 이동 가능한 호버크래프트를 활용하였다. 호버크래프트 본체에 수질측정 및 대기오염측정 센서를 장착하고 그 정보를 실시간으로 모니터링 시스템으로 전송할 수 있는 통신 모듈을 장착하였다. 환경측정용 호버크래프트의 구조를 설계하였으며, 실시간 정보전달 통신 모듈로는 저전력 장거리 통신이 가능한 LoRa 모듈을 적용하였다. 실제 하드웨어 구현을 통해 제안한 시스템의 동작 성능을 확인하였다.
