Design of a deep water cage culture environment monitoring system based on ZigBee

摘要

With the development of deep water cage culture digital management technology and accurate cultivation techniques, monitoring the overall deep water cage culture environment has become extremely important. A deep water cage culture environmental monitoring system is proposed for distant deep water cage culture sites to address the inconvenience of manual monitoring and the low realization rate of automated environmental control. The proposed system integrates a ZigBee wireless communication network, an Ethernet-based server monitoring platform, and a mobile client monitoring platform. Information about the cage culture environment is obtained by logging in to the remote server via the mobile client, and the available information includes water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, and water velocity. This system achieves accurate monitoring of the deep water cage culture environment, and also solves field cabling and low efficiency problems. Additionally, the TCP/IP-based server monitoring platform and the mobile client monitoring platform are fully functional with a friendly user interface, which provides efficient and convenient management for culturists.
