“…The MI waveguide transceivers require only less than half of energy consumed by EM wave or MI method, making MI waveguide suitable for energy constrained applications in addition to lower overall cost due to relay nodes not requiring any power ( Sun & Akyildiz, 2009 ). For both ordinary MI as well as MI waveguide system, the bandwidth achieved is smaller of the range 1–2 kHz, which is far lesser than EM wave mechanism, but it suffices for applications of low data rate monitoring ( Sharma et al, 2016 ; Reddy et al, 2020 ). The MI systems (the MI waveguide as well as 3D MI coil) exhibit constant channel condition and offer relatively longer transmission range than that of the EM wave-based system.…”

A large range of applications have been identified based upon the communication of underground sensors deeply buried in the soil. The classical electromagnetic wave (EM) approach, which works well for terrestrial communication in air medium, when applied for this underground communication, suffers from significant challenges attributing to signal absorption by rocks, soil, or water contents, highly varying channel condition caused by soil characteristics, and requirement of big antennas. As a strong alternative of EM, various magnetic induction (MI) techniques have been introduced. These techniques basically depend upon the magnetic induction between two coupled coils associated with transceiver sensor nodes. This paper elaborates on three basic MI communication mechanisms i.e. direct MI transmission, MI waveguide transmission, and 3D coil MI communication with detailed discussion of their working mechanism, advantages and limitations. The comparative analysis of these MI techniques with each other as well as with EM wave method will facilitate the users in choosing the best method to offer enhanced transmission range (upto 250 m), reduced path loss (<100 dB), channel reliability, working bandwidth (1–2 kHz), & omni-directional coverage to realize the promising MI-based wireless underground sensor network (WUSN) applications.

“…At present, various cableless technologies exist that transmit sensory data from underground probes to the ground. Examples include ultrasonic, underground radio and magnetic induction [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ]. However, due to the influence of humidity, soil moisture and temperature [ 19 , 20 ], these cableless communication technologies are not reliable in the practical application of the cone penetration test.…”

The traditional cone penetration test system uses cable to transmit data; as the probe goes deeper into the ground, the length of the cable will become longer. This makes the installation of the test equipment more complicated, and excessively long cables cause signal distortion and seriously affect data accuracy. To simplify the experimental equipment and improve the accuracy of data acquisition, a cableless cone penetration test system is proposed. The improved system uses an SD card to store the experimental data, as opposed to using cables for communication which, often lead to the distortion of signals caused by long-distance communication and data loss caused by accidental cable breaks. Therefore, the accuracy of the collected data is higher, and the experimental device is simplified. To evaluate the applicability and efficiency of our design, we have carried out exploration experiments with the sensor system proposed in this paper. The test results show that the experimental data collected by the new system are basically consistent with the data collected by traditional cable CPT equipment, and the accuracy of the collected data is higher. It is more reliable and accurate to analyze the comprehensive mechanical properties of the soil layers with the data collected by the new system.
