<Session 5: Wildlife Tracking I>Development of Ultra-Compact Bird-Borne S-band Transceiver for Wild Birds

Abstract

The necessity of monitoring of the wilds birds across the border by using ICT is already confirmed in International Telecommunication Union (ITU). We developed a ultra-compact bird-borne S-band transceiver, which the biological information and the positional information of the birds can be obtained by using the bird-to-bird communications and the bird-to-centre communications. This transceiver is composed of Texas Instrument Inc.CC2500 packet communication device and can choose a transmission speed from 1200bps to 500kbps, and can choose a modulation from 2FSK, GFSK, MSK, OOK. We sought the optimal parameter for both communications by using the evaluation experiment.
