Design of a wireless real-time observation data transmission system for deep ocean mooring by Lijun XU, Zhaohuan HOU, Shefeng YAN, Zhen ZHANG, Di ZENG

“…According to the requirement of the transmission of deep ocean mooring observation data,a wireless data transmission system was designed to help the ocean graphic scientists get the current data from the instruments of the ocean mooring in real-time mode.Because of the difference of the underwater acoustic channel and the terrestrial channel,communication technologies were applied,one was underwater acoustic communication,and the other was the communication by iridium satellites,the scientists could read the data at the land monitoring station.The results indicate that the system can fulfill the real-data acquisition from the deep ocean mooring,and the system shows the reliability under all kinds of weather conditions.…”

Adaptive Graph Cut Based Cloud Detection in Wireless Sensor Networks by Shuang Liu, Zhong Zhang

“…In addition, a novel transfer learning algorithm is proposed to transfer knowledge among sensor nodes, such that cloud images captured from different sensor nodes can adapt to different weather conditions. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm not only achieves better results than other state-of-the-art cloud detection algorithms in WSN, but also achieves comparable results compared with the interactive segmentation algorithm.…”
