A Real-Time Health Monitoring System of Offshore Platform Structure Based on Fieldbus CAN and OPC

摘要

Using control area network (CAN) technique and open connectivity (OPC) method, a sensor fieldbus is developed to acquire and preprocess the data came from structure for monitoring the damage. The OPC interface is added in sensor bus for information sharing. The algorithm of distance of storing-strategy data is embedded in the sensor fieldbus. A system of data acquisition and preprocessing based on the sensor fieldbus is presented and simulated it on the offshore platform. The result shows that the speed and efficiency of sensor fieldbus are reliable and robust when the gigantic data stream into the monitoring system.
