Abstract
Systems include, among other components, fixed and mobile sensors positioned within a pipe network containing a substance (such as a liquid, gas, or low-viscosity solid). In addition, systems include a mobile transceiver device positioned within the pipe network. The mobile transceiver device moves through the substance and the pipe network, and the mobile transceiver device is in wireless communication with the sensors. Systems also include a receiver that is external to the pipe network, and the receiver is in communication with the mobile transceiver device. In operation, the mobile transceiver device wirelessly receives sensor data from the sensors, the mobile transceiver device can aggregate the sensor data from multiple sensors, and the mobile transceiver device transmits the aggregated sensor data wirelessly to the receiver.
