Acoustic beacon, control device for acoustic beacon and application method of acoustic beacon

Abstract

The present invention provides an acoustic beacon, a control device for the acoustic beacon and an application method of the acoustic beacon. The control device comprises a main control unit for initializing a system; a first communication unit electrically coupled to the main control unit for signal transmission between the acoustic beacon and the control device; a measurement unit electrically coupled to the main control unit and the communication unit for acquiring target position data by the communication unit; and a calculation unit electrically coupled to the main control unit and the measurement unit for calculating a target position according to the target position data. The method comprises steps of initializing the system by the main control unit; transmitting a signal between the acoustic beacon and the control device by the communication unit; acquiring target position data by the measurement unit and the communication unit; and calculating the target position according tothe target position data by the calculation unit and the communication unit. The acoustic beacon comprises a second communication unit for communication between the acoustic beacon and the control device; and a positioning unit electrically coupled to the second communication unit for generating position data.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of exploration, in particular, to an acoustic beacon, a control device for the acoustic beacon and an application method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the continuous development of the national marine industry, underwater unmanned vehicle technology and underwater acoustic communication technology have also continued to develop. Safety and other fields have shown important application value. Acoustic technology is a commonly used technology for underwater vehicles to realize positioning, navigation and communication functions. Acoustic positioning refers to the use of sound waves actively emitted by the target or sound wave signals received and returned by other sound waves to determine the position of the target. [0003] With the continuous promotion of underwater applications, the general positioning function can no longer meet the needs of some specific applications, and v...
