Case Structure:
Client & Challenge: A polar research institution needed its remote field stations, operating in extreme cold, strong winds, and unmanned conditions, to stably run various sensors and remotely transmit data. This demanded exceptionally high requirements for low-temperature startup and equipment reliability.
Our Solution: Provided a ruggedized, integrated solution from edge computing to satellite communications.
System Architecture:
Edge Computing Node: Deployed wide-temperature miniature industrial computers at the station, responsible for collecting and pre-processing data from various sensors (temperature, humidity, ice thickness, meteorological, etc.).
Communication & Power Supply: Integrated small satellite communication terminals for scheduled data transmission. Equipped with low-temperature resistant energy storage battery packs and a solar charging management system.
Remote Monitoring: Data was ultimately transmitted back to a command center in the city, where status and data charts from remote stations could be viewed in real-time on the display control console.
Technical Highlights:-40°C cold start and stable operation, low-power design, resistance to strong winds and sealed protection, remote unmanned operation and maintenance.
Achieved Outcomes: Successfully deployed at multiple extreme environment stations. Data transmission completeness rate increased from less than 80% to over 99.5%, significantly enhancing the continuity and quality of scientific research data.
