Wireless Communication Systems For Underground Mines – A Critical Appraisal

Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING TRENDS AND TECHNOLOGY - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 7

Abstract

 This paper presents an overview of wireless communication systems for underground mines including voice and data commmunication. Development of Wired , semi – wireless and wireless communication syetms are also discussed. Application of various wireless communication syetms in underground mines of USA, australia, canada, South Africa, Europian countries etc including indigenous experimetnal trials were illustrated. In this paper a brief review is given on the advanced communication systems adopted in various mines with a bird's eye view on the basic researches made in 1970-2000. Recent devices such as SIAMnet, TeleMag, PED, and VDV leaky feeder systems are discussed which provide voice, video and Mobile Data Communication at very high speed data with wireless applications. Impetus is given for urgent application of recent technologies on wireless communication in view of various disasters due to lack of communication in mines.
