Abstract: This paper presents a three layered network construction of Internet of Things (IOT) communication method for high-voltage transmission line which involves the wireless self-organized sensor network (WSN), optical fiber composite overhead ground wire (OPGW), general packet radio service (GPRS) and the Beidou (COMPASS) navigation satellite system (CNSS). The function of each layer of network, application deployment and management of energy consumption are studied. The method can meet the needs of interconnection between the monitoring center and terminals, reduce the terminals’ GPRS and CNSS configuration and OPGW optical access points, and ensure the on-line monitoring data transmission real-time and reliable under the situation of remote region, extreme weather and other environmental conditions.

Keywords: Internet of things (IOT), high-voltage transmission line, on-line monitoring, CNSS, WSN
