Summary: | Based on the background of a mine, this study aimed to improve underground wireless communication. The study selected Zigbee technology from many wireless technologies as the basis, expounded the technical advantages and disadvantages, and addressed its disadvantages. First, the modulation technology of Zigbee was improved. This article selects and describes O-QPSK technology from three modulation technologies, thereby addressing the synchronization difficulties caused by inherent technical reasons, and proposes a modulation method based on feedforward timing. Moreover, excellent performance was achieved in the follow-up simulation experiment. For networking problems, a series of mechanisms are proposed to address several problems in large-scale networking: node offline, energy waste, signal delay, etc. This article proposes five main mechanisms and an improved protocol from two significant perspectives. The problem of node disconnection is divided into two parts. Considering the different status of edge nodes and important nodes in the network, three mechanisms are proposed for edge nodes for disconnection detection and self-repair, and two mechanisms are proposed for essential nodes. This can compensate for the loss caused by the disconnection of essential nodes at a specific time. For network energy waste, an Improved-LEACH protocol is proposed to alleviate the signal delay problem. The performance of the five mechanisms and one protocol was verified in a simulation test, and the performance was reasonable and in line with expectations.
