Hello everybody, I was looking for help about long range WiFi data transmission and I found this helpfull forum. I make my answer to Jandy, but any advice is well accepted. I work for Physics Dept - University of Genova (Italy) and I'm now involved on a European project whose aim is 3D real-time tracking of bottlenose dolphins in Portofino Gulf by a passive underwater acoustic acquisition system (hydrophones). The detection unit support is a buoy positioned at about 1 Km away from the coast. The output signal of the hydrophones is digitized by a 200kHz/16 bit ADC and must be sent to a receiving station on the coast. The idea is to create a point-to-point wi-fi link between the buoy and the on-shore station. The transmission bit rate should be:
bit rate=200kHz * 16 bit * 3Hydrophones=9.6 Mb/s
My question is: up to your experience, is it possible to reach this kind of bit rate (not ideally but realistically), supposing that the buoy has a remarkable stability and that the receiver sees the transmitter (distance about 1 km)?
Do you have any advice about the particular device I should use? ( my choice could be CISCO AIRNET 1300). Thanks in advance for any helpfull answer. Best regards Marco
