| Summary: | The oceans alone cover almost three quarters (71%) of our planet and along with
rivers and lakes are critical to our well-being. They must be continuously observed to
detect climate changes or pollution of the environment which effects human and
animal habitat, especially in this 21st century which global warming is the main issue.
Recently, sensor networks have appeared as an important technique for many
applications, including monitoring, measurement, surveillance and control. The idea
of applying sensor networks for underwater monitoring has become more interests.
In this thesis, the development of an underwater sensor that able to perform
monitoring applications is described. The systems and technologies of underwater
sensor network has been carried out and investigated for a better understanding. Few
possible solutions of designing the system are discussed and a more suitable solution
for real time monitoring is proposed. By the development of the proposed underwater
sensor network monitoring system, any changing on the water quality should be able
to monitor instantly by the end user, which consists of related research group or
organization and society. |
