Design of Remote Detection System for Mooring-Rope Force of Offshore Cage Based on Wireless Ad Hoc Network

In order to facilitate studying real-time mooring force of offshore cage, based on the combination of ZigBee and GPRS technologies, the secondary development was conducted, the detection system of mooring force was designed. It was mainly designed the overall system solution and integrate the system hardware architecture, the development of the software programs of analog-data acquisition, ZigBee networking, remote data transmission and the server were designed. The system test results show that the data could be effectively transmitted between the terminals and server. This system is small in size and low power consuming which can be used as a remote detection tool of mooring force in process when studying on offsore cage aquaculture.
