Application of Iridium Data Communication System in Information Transmission of Ocean Monitoring Buoy

Liu, Ye; Xu, Yu-zhe

In view of the problem of poor real-time transmission of the traditional information transmission method of marine monitoring buoy, the transmission speed is slow. Based on this, iridium data communication system is applied to the information transmission of ocean monitoring buoy. Through the establishment of the overall framework of Iridium satellite communication system, determine the buoy information transmission network protocol. On the basis of the network protocol, use Iridium satellite data communication system to obtain the location information of the marine monitoring buoy, and then process the obtained information. Finally, upload the processed buoy information to complete the transmission of the marine monitoring buoy information. Compared with the traditional method of information transmission of ocean monitoring buoy, the experimental results show that the method of information transmission of ocean monitoring buoy using iridium data communication system can complete the transmission of buoy information in a shorter transmission time, with better real-time transmission.
