“…It was shown that wideband antenna radiation pattern is independent of soil texture and soil moisture and showed efficient radiation in different soil type with varying soil moisture levels. The study [60,83,84] was successful to achieve long communication range of 30 and 150 m at the burial depths of 40 cm and 25 cm, respectively.…”

Wireless Underground Communication (WUC) is an emerging field that is being developed continuously. It provides secure mechanism of deploying nodes underground which shields them from any outside temperament or harsh weather conditions. This paper works towards introducing WUC and give a detail overview of WUC. It discusses system architecture of WUC along with the anatomy of the underground sensor motes deployed in WUC systems. It also compares Over-the-Air and Underground and highlights the major differences between the both type of channels. Since, UG communication is an evolving field, this paper also presents the evolution of the field along with the components and example UG wireless communication systems. Finally, the current research challenges of the system are presented for further improvement of the WUCs.

“…In DW-dominant experiments, values for distance and transmit power level are selected such that soil surface has no effect on the experiment results. The burial depth of the sender and the receiver is kept the same, i.e., d bg = 80 cm [38,69].…”

“…Underground channel characterization is an important task and it can play an important role in the improvement and proliferation of Wireless Underground Sensor Network (WUSN) communication protocols. In contrast to the over-the-air channel, the underground communication channel is highly affected by environmental factors because of the correlation between these factors and the dielectric properties of soil [37][38][39]. In addition to the environmental effect, deployment parameters also affect the communication performance [31,37].…”

In this article, the results of experiments for the observation of Zenneck surface waves in sub GHz frequency range using dipole antennas are presented. Experiments are conducted over three different soils for communications distances of up to 1 m. This empirical analysis confirms the existence of Zenneck waves over the soil surface. Through the power delay profile (PDP) analysis, it has been shown that other subsurface components exhibit rapid decay as compared to the Zenneck waves. A potential application of the Zenneck waves for energy transmission in the area of decision agriculture is explored. Accordingly, a novel wireless through-the-soil power transfer application using Zenneck surface waves in electromagnetic (EM) based wireless underground communications is developed.

“…Digital transformation and the Internet of Things (IoT) have transformed the speed at which data can be gathered and decisions made to improve efficiencies and profitability, as well as elevating the role of customers within water businesses. The IoT has been rapidly taken up by large water utilities and is now almost business as usual in many countries since it immediately aligns with the core business objectives of the water sector, is an enabler of efficiency (Salam 2020), and neatly "adds onto" rather than replaces conventional infrastructure and organizational behaviors. The IoT allows the idea of replacing a large singular physical infrastructure grid or network with clusters of small decentralized systems to be a rational one.…”

Water sector reform is one of the cornerstone requirements of resilient cities in the face of global climate change and in meeting the commitments of the UN Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. However, on the current trajectory, countries are falling short and will either need to commit to significant capital investment to supplement large-scale central networks and supplies or make rapid changes to adopt decentralized technologies and business models. Water utilities represent a significant and influential group, particularly in Australia, Europe, and the USA where they are monopolistic within their jurisdictions and strongly
