指针式水表数据远传系统的研究 　　摘 要：分析现有人工抄表方式及已有水表自动抄表系统存在的问题，提出一种低成本的基于视觉技术的指针式水表远传抄表系统的设计方案。该系统平时不需要供电，只是在抄表时才临时提供电源，具有节电功能且无数据累计误差；水表读数以图像方式保存，当出现问题时便于用户核对。采用图像截取方法仅采集对识别有用的图像信息，降低对存储空间及处理速度的要求，用较低成本的处理器替代高成本专用图像处理器，降低电路成本；根据采集的指针图像特点和指针式水表的结构特征，设计确定指针指向的算法，并将识别软件嵌入到硬件采集器中，在硬件采集器中实现指针式水表读数的识别。实验证其可应用性，对指针式水表数据远传系统的发展有重要意义。?? 　　关键词：DSP； 指针式水表； 自动识别；远传抄表系统?? 　　中图分类号：TM769；TP39 文献标识码：A 　　文章编号：1004-373X(2008)10-061-03?オ? 　　 　　Study of Remote Reading System of Pointer Water-meter?? 　　YUAN Weiqi,LIU Hui?? 　　(Visual Inspection Technology Institute,Shenyang University of Technology,Shenyang,110023,China)?オ? 　　Abstract： The problems of present manual water measuring and automatic reading systems of water-meter are analyzed,then a kind oflow cost remote reading system of pointer water-meter based on vision is put forward.Power is needed only in water measuring,which can save eletricity and has no accumulative errors;the users check easily because the readings of water-??meter is stored in image.The image intercepting method is used to collect the useful image in this system,which can reduce the need of storage and process speed,so low cost processor can be used instead of high cost processor,this method makes the cost of the electro circuit practical.The arithmetic of recognizing the direction of pointers is designed based on the image′s characteristic and pointer water meters′ configuration characters,and recognisition arithmetic is embeded in hardware,so image recognition is completed in the hardware circuit.The experimental result shows that this device can be applied and has important significance on meter data transmission system.?? 　　Keywords：DSP;pointer water-meter;automatic recognizing;remote reading system of water-meter 　　 　　1 引 言?? 　　近年来我国城市人口急剧增加，随之住宅建设规模也迅速扩大，水表安装量也大幅度增加。由此带来如下一些问题：如住宅楼层较高抄表人员劳动强度明显加大；冒充抄表员私闯民宅作案事件时常发生；出于保护个人隐私，一些住户不愿意外人进入；抄表结果与住户读数不一致引起争端等。而且抄表过程中由于抄表不到位，私自调表改读数等人为因素造成的水损是全部水损的主要部分，这关系到自来水公司的经济效益和国家水资源的合理利用，甚至会涉及到子孙后代的生存大计。此外，随着人们的生活水平不断提高，老百姓
