Movement Monitoring System for Marine Buoy

Abstract

Buoy has different motion characteristics depends on the sea weather situations. The motion characteristics has an impact on antenna, solar power generation system and etc. installed within a buoy. Therefore, it is important to analyse motion characteristics for management and analyse the buoy conditions. This paper's Buoy motion monitoring system uses gyro sensor to detect motions of a light buoy, and the measured data transfers to the PC on the shore using signal processing algorithm. The aim of this research is to develop monitoring and management mechanism of a buoy by applying motion monitoring system. In this paper, the operation characteristic of movement monitoring system is verified through experiment. Further, in this paper, it can apply such as real-time visibility into the status of the buoy or many ocean facility's motion estimation of the future.

A Multi-Objective Partition Method for Marine Sensor Networks Based on Degree of Event Correlation

“…With the rapid development of various marine sensing equipment, marine sensor networks can collect global ocean temperature, salinity, humidity and other information, which is widely used in marine event analysis, marine phenomena detection and other scientific research. Some researchers have built large-scale ocean data information systems to manage sensor data from storage equipment, storage environment, and data transmission [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ], but they rarely consider the data storage methods so these methods take a long time for data retrieval. Novell and Palazov et al [ 8 , 9 ] applied WMS service to provide near real-time retrieval to historical data for single-point access.…”
