| Summary: | Abstract This paper presents an approach to access real time data from underground mine. Two advance technologies are presented that can improve the adverse environmental effect of underground mine. Visible light communication (VLC) technology is incorporated to estimate the location of miners inside the mine. The distribution of signal to noise ratio (SNR) for VLC system is also studied. In the second part of the paper, long range (LoRa) technology is introduced for transmitting underground information to above the surface control room. This paper also includes details of the LoRa technology, and presents comparison of ranges with existing above the surface technologies. |
