| Summary: | This paper presents the development of wireless system
for data transfer on unmanned underwater vehicles
(UUV) using Xbee Pro 60mWatt. Nowadays, wireless
communication technology has become part of our
daily life. However, research in underwater wireless
communication has been active to design the methods
for wireless data transmission underwater. In this
system is very important to transfer data from UUV to
vessel/platform or other UUV. The technology of
underwater wireless communication can be used such
as to detect fish or ship, identify the environment at
bottom of sea and transmitting data from sea to land.
Throughout this project, a few experiments have been
done to develop a wireless system for data transfer
from underwater vehicles to Computer based (CB). A
transmitter (CB) will send a data to a receiver (UUV)
that attached to a UUV (FKE-UTeRGlider).
Hardware’s that has been used such as XBee Pro
60mW Antenna and XBee Pro Starter Kit that will
function as a transmitter and receiver to transfer data
using wireless systems respectively. The
microcontroller used in this project is PIC
microcontroller that functions as an interface with the
computer. Graphical User Interface (GUI) by Visual
Basic (VB) software has been used as a way to
communicate with the PIC. All the results for data
transfer will discuss in this paper |
