Abstract：With the development of depth in underground mining，the controlling of ground pressure is becoming more and more important. Combining with the need of ground pressure monitoring in underground mining，and according to the characteristics of ground pressure in an underground mine in Hubei Province，the remote monitoring technology is put forward. The structure of remote monitoring system in underground mining with limited area is studied. And the software system，the hardware system and the network system are studied and designed. Combining with the characteristics of mining engineering，the arrangement requirements of sensors，such as stress sensors，displacement sensors，and pressure sensors，are analyzed. By monitoring the ground pressure，the characteristics of ground pressure in underground mine and the stability status of pillars are acquired. The application demonstrates that the automatic remote monitoring system operates normally，and the date is accurate. It can solve the problems such as the security of monitoring individuals，real time monitoring，measurement in broken rock mass，etc.. It is a new direction of pressure monitoring in underground mining，and it is an important part of digital mines.
