Abstract

The emergence of telecommunications in the last decade and advances in the field of instrumentation have enabled many new applications to be developed in particular for remote monitoring of physical environment by sensors spatially distributed. A framework for water quality monitoring is been proposed based on a telecommunications infrastructure. In this proposal, we review some of the benefits that may be derived by developing nations and key challenges that need to be addressed in the monitoring of water quality for rural communities in Africa. It is proposed that Fibre Optic Sensors can be used to design compact and highly efficient sensor systems. The proposed framework may be extended to other areas of national economic importance.
