Outline • Introduction • Hardware architecture • Experiment • Conclusion • Concluded my own way
Introduction • A platform for long-term monitoring of coral reefs and fisheries • Consists of both static and mobile nodes • Cameras, water temperature, and pressure • Optical and acoustic communication model
Introduction-problems • Power efficiency, deployment and repair are harder in the underwater environment • Mobile node • Radio communication is no longer practical • Radio waves are attenuated strongly in salt water • Optical and acoustic communication instead
Introduction-optical and ultrasonic • Optical • Capable of higher data transmission rates • Propagation speed is closer to the speed of the light • Essentially directional • Ultrasonic • A shared media that supports broadcasting • Low propagation rate poses a challenge for carrier-sense transmission strategies
Hybrid communication approach-optical and acoustic • Optical system • shot-range line-of-sight data transfer • communication between a sensor node and an AUV • Acoustic system • signal events • Notify the AUV about the exception situation • transmit small amounts of data
Optical transmitter • Luxeon 5 LXHL-PM02, a 532nm green LED with approximately 700mW radiated power while consuming 6W of input power • The choice of the light frequency is based the sensitivity of the photodiode and the attenuation of light
Acoustic communication system • They build their own system to fit the demand • Shorter communication range, 25m • Panasonic EFR-RQB40K5(receiver) and EFR-TQB40K5(transmitter)
Introduction-static and mobile nodes • The advantage of mobile nodes • Provides means for deploying, reconfiguring, and retrieving the nodes in the network • Permits large area coverage with sparse networks • Can act as data mules to collect data
Outline • Introduction • Hardware architecture • Experiment • Conclusion • Concluded my own way
Hardware infrastructure • Static underwater sensor node • Aquaflecks • Mobile underwater sensor node • Also known as Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV) • Amour • Starbug
Hardware infrastructure-Aquafleck • ATmega128 processor, 128kbyte programming flash memory, 4kbyte RAM,512kbyte flash memory for data logging • Contained in a 170x100x90 mm watertight yellow box up to 30m • 532nm light, capable of a range of 2.2m/8m3, within a cone of 30 degrees, maximum data rate of 320kbits/s • 30kHz FSK modulation with a range of 20m omnidirectional, data rate of 50bits/s • 4 days of continuous operation with all hardware fully powered
Hardware infrastructure-Amour AUV • Used to dock and transport the Aquafleck nodes, and data muling • 4 external thrusters • Pressure sensor as depth feedback, magnetic compass as orientation feedback • 8bits microcontroller with 64kbyte of program memory and 2kbyte of RAM • Can dock with any mate whose docking element is a 15.24 cm long rod of 1 cm diameter • Optical communication
Hardware infrastructure-Starbug AUV • Used to locate the aquafleck nodes by vision, data muling and to dock with Amour in order to provide visual control feedback • 2 stereo vision heads, downward for sea-floor altitude and speed estimation, forward for obstacle avoidance • Acoustic communication
Outline • Introduction • Hardware architecture • Experiment • Conclusion • Concluded my own way
Experiment of data collection • Long term collection of temperature and pressure data (Tingalpa Creek) • Sensor nodes were deployed approximately 1 km for a period of 3 days • Log data every 150 sec
Data retrieval using mobility • A relative position of the network can be preloaded in the mobile node to locate the static node • Starbug located the next node using visual odometry while Amour locates the node using the magnetic compass
Data retrieval using mobility • Mobile node sends a request for data • The data is transmitted either packet by packet or in a groups of packets • Depends on the quality of communication link • If any packet is lost • Time out and request again • Transmission is completed • Reset and erase the data • Adjust the clock of a static node to the clock of a mobile node • For long term monitoring, clock need to be synchronuzed
Outline • Introduction • Hardware architecture • Experiment • Conclusion • Concluded my own way
Conclusion • The first prototype for an underwater sensor network • Still many technical challenges to be solved • How to control the mobile node in the presence of currents • Mobile node helps a lot
Outline • Introduction • Hardware architecture • Experiment • Conclusion • Concluded my own way
Concluded my own way • Just an application use the idea of sensor network yet it’s the first one • Relatively new compared to e-home, military purpose, etc • It continuously collect data for several days nevertheless I think the transfer in underwater environment is gradually, not in a sudden • I can not believe that Aoyama will put her hand in Densha Otoko’s
