Toward Automatic Subsea Operations Using Real-Time Underwater Optical Wireless Sensor Networks

Automatic subsea operations using real-time underwater optical wireless sensor networks are mooted as a new paradigm of Internet Things in this paper. To end, we develop an network prototype called AquaE-net, which consists hub and two nodes with temperature, salinity, conductivity, pH sensing capabilities. Clock synchronization is realized paves the way for future positioning navigation. Moreover, bi-directional communication 100% packet success rates has been by AquaE-net free space turbid water harbor Red Sea at King Abdullah University Science Technology. This first step toward effective marine environmental monitoring resources exploration.
