Results of deep water acoustic telemetry development tests
Abstract
Acoustic telemetry provides wireless communications between seafloor instrumentation systems and shipboard receiving equipment. A high data rate acoustic telemetry system was demonstrated in water depths up to 200 meters. Analyses, laboratory tests, and field tests were conducted which demonstrate that the range of the system can be extended to at least 500 meters. The results of these analyses and tests are reported.
