基于水下绞车的实时传输潜标研制及海上试验

针对“透明海洋”工程对水下实时、长期、连续观测的迫切需求,开展基于水下绞车的实时传输潜标研制。该型潜标采用水下绞车牵引卫星通信浮标的方式,将潜标上搭载的测量仪器观测数据通过铠装通信缆传输到卫星通信浮标,当卫星通信浮标浮出水面时,再通过卫星通信传输至数据接收处理装置,完成数据传输后,水下绞车牵引卫星通信浮标至海面以下50 m,从而实现潜标系统的实时传输功能。本文详细介绍了基于水下绞车的实时传输潜标系统设计及关键组部件设计,并通过海上试验验证了该型潜标海上应用的可行性。

Design and Sea Trial of Real-Time Communication Subsurface Mooring System Based on Underwater Winch

In view of the urgent demand of "Transparent Ocean" project for real-time, long-term and continuous underwater observation, the design of real-time communication subsurface mooring system based on underwater winch is carried out. This system uses an underwater winch to drive the satellite communication buoy (SCB) for profile movement. The SCB collects observation data from ADCP and CTD sensors on the main float through communication cables. When the SCB moves to sea surface, the data is sent back to the shore station via Iridium communications. This paper introduces the system design and key component design of real-time communication subsurface mooring system in detail, and verifies the feasibility of system design by the sea trial.
