I. INTRODUCTION
Water quality monitoring has become a crucial question
around the whole world. Traditionally, remote water sensing
based on satellites is widely used to monitor the water quality
for rivers, lakes, seas and oceans. However, satellites only
offer a macro view of the water quality. When it comes to a
particular region of interest, the accuracy of the satellite
surveillance may not meet our requirements.
With the development of communication technology and
sensor technology, especially the concept of wireless sensor
network and Cyber-Physical System (CPS), many efforts
have been made toward building new water quality
surveillance technologies based on wireless sensors deployed
underwater.
Sensors have been developed for underwater environment
that are able to collect accurately several water quality
parameters such as; temperature, chemical substances, water
density etc. These sensors can be equipped with improved
communication capability, for instance, transmitting data
through acoustic waves. Using wireless communication
network, it is now possible to organize sensors as an
autonomous sensor network that provides continuous,
accurate water quality measures in relatively large water
body such as lakes. Underwater sensors network can serve as
a promising and a complementary approach with satellite
surveillance for an accurate remote sensing of water quality.

The structure of the UAVs is plotted in Figure 3. The MCU
is the on-board decision-maker that coordinates all its
components. UAVs are equipped with its own sensors such
as acoustic sensor, camera, etc. Actuators includes propeller,
step motor for rudders and possibly robot arms, they are
directly control by MCU or remotely controlled from CMS.
Battery management unit monitors the battery state of health
(SoH) and state of charge (SoC), and decides the power
supply strategy for all components. For example when the
battery is low, some in-essential functions of the UAV are
temporarily turned off to save energy. The wireless
transceivers on the UAVs are omitted from Figure.3.

The sensor units are implemented based on Zigbee wireless
technology, the block diagram is shown in Figure 2 (note that
the sensors are omitted). The sensor measurements in the
form of electrical signal and send to signal processing circuit
for local processing (quantization, scaling if necessary). The
digital signal is then sent to the microprocessor and sent to
CMS through transceiver circuit TI-CC2430. A Li-ion
battery pack is mounted to the mobile senor node to power all
