The module is intrinsic safety and is designed to operate in explosive area. The module is powered by a battery that allow 10 years of operation. Figure 1 : Propane Trak The module casing allow operation in various area indoor and outdoor. The Rochester gauge type used is the Junior model. That is this system is able to replace directly the Rochester mechanical indicator witch is provided with the tank

The module read le level on the gauge every hour and memorize it. After 12 hour (12 reading) the module transmit a radio data frame with the level history of the last 12 hours to à C@llRider®. A C@llRider® is another part of the system that receive the data and then connect to internet and send the data over the net to the servers. 2.2 Hardware specifications 2.2.1 Mechanical specifications The electronic part is housed in a specific casing.

The Frequency hope spread spectrum (FHSS) scheme was retained to achieve it. The FHSS principal is: Transmitting on one frequency for a certain time, then pseudo-randomly jumping to another, and transmitting again. Also, the FHSS could counter-act interference by using different carrier frequency at different time. It's carrier will hop around within the band so that hopefully it will avoid the jammer at some frequencies. To synchronize the transmission and reception frequency, in order to prevent lost data, a sync word has been inserted. Also, to assure completion of all the data, an algorithm of data interleaving and data correction have been implemented. 3.1.2 Structure Simplified OSI structure: ------------------------------------------------------------------ HR_Interface ------------------------------------------------------------------ LLC_Interface ------- MAC_Interface ------------------------------------------------------------------ PHY_Interface 2.

Each burst consists of 48 chips (24bits). And for each burst, there’s a frequency hope Î 64 bursts for 64 frequencies. The beacon burst is composed of a preamble and a long sync word 2/ Data sub-frame The data sub-frame is composed of 64 bursts. Each burst consists of 48 chips (24bits). And for each burst, there’s a frequency hope Î 64 bursts for 64 frequencies.

The length of cable is 2 m. 3.2 Software specifications Figure 5 : Software bloc The principle of the software is to read the gauge every hour and to memorize the value. After 12 hours, the module activate the radio to send a data frame with the last 12 hours inside. After the system return to sleep for one hour waiting the time for the next measure.
