Underwater Electric Field Communication System Based on ZigBee

This paper proposes a design scheme of underwater electric field communication system based on ZigBee technology, and focuses on the overall structure and the design of each component of the system. Based on the traditional underwater electric field communication, the system introduces ZigBee technology to realize the underwater communication network. Each ZigBee module is connected to a Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) for data interaction. The system has the characteristics of low cost, low power consumption, flexible configuration and wide coverage.
