Polar Environment Monitoring Buoy Based on MSP430 MCU

Abstract

This paper plans to develop MSP430, using low-power wake-up technology, carrying sensors for real-time underwater temperature profile measurement and CT hydrological data collection, and develop an environmental monitoring buoy suitable for polar ice area. It has the capability of low power consumption and long endurance, and has the redundancy to choose to carry a variety of sensors. Relying on China's polar scientific investigation, the buoy successfully completed the field test, which is a beneficial attempt to innovate the polar ice area observation technology in China.
