Abstract

In situ ocean monitoring is expensive and involve risk for the human crews. In order to reduce costs and risk associated with it is essential to have seamless ways of communicating with monitoring devices as marine buoys. It is interesting to have wireless communication in situ, but there is no known marine monitoring system that uses this technology as a means of extracting data over the sea. Therefore, this study is based on finding the maximum distance at which devices can be connected for the visualization and extraction of data without losing information in the process, from the modeling of the equation that relates the received signal strength indicator with the separation distance of the monitoring system, allowing the development of a prototype buoy that includes the extraction of data at sea wirelessly. In the results of the modelling show that data could be safely retrieved up to 41 m distance.
