Abstract
A gateway buoy system connects a underwater network to a terrestrial network, which enables to efficiently monitor the underwater network on a land station. In this paper, we introduce an implemented gateway buoy system which relays gathered data from multiple underwater nodes to a land station in a real time. The gateway buoy hardware system is composed of a underwater acoustic modem system, a radio frequency modem system, and a gateway operating system. in additional, we have implemented a land operating program and a land monitoring program for gateway system and states of underwater network, respectively. We also perform real-sea experiments to verify the performance of the gateway buoy system which real-time monitors underwater network states and gateway system states.
