Abstract
This paper describes the ubiquitous computing technologies for ship, which is produced and assembled by many steel blocks. It particularly describes the testing of a 2.4 GHz wireless communications platform, especially zigbee, on a number of intelligent devices, with the blocks disturbing the wireless communication. The power line communication that is established in a ship already is also experimented for some data transfer. At last, the RFID technology is applied at the test bed that is composed of three steel containers. In this paper, we implemented some USN technologies in the test bed simulating a ship environment and investigated the basic characteristics of ubiquitous computing technologies. Possible applications of such ubiquitous computing technologies to ships are also introduced here in.
