Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a semi-self-contained hydrophone in the field of deep-sea ocean acoustic environment, background field and target acoustic feature detection and monitoring, and specifically relates to a semi-self-contained hydrophone synchronous array based on a load-bearing leakage cable for transmitting and receiving signals. Background Art
[0002] At present, acoustic methods are still the main means of conducting research on deep-sea sound propagation, deep-sea background field observation, deep-sea channel feature acquisition, underwater target detection, and deep-sea long-distance communication. Whether it is the requirements for the resolution of the multipath structure of sound line arrival in deep-sea acoustic tomography experiments, or the requirements for the detection depth of underwater targets in deep-sea vertical arrays, these all put forward high requirements for the synchronization acquisition accuracy between the various hydrophone array elements of the deep-sea vertical array. Only when the synchronization acquisition accuracy between the various hydrophone array elements in the deep-sea vertical array meets the expected requirements can a higher array gain be obtained, thereby improving the detection accuracy and distance of the vertical array. For example, in acoustic tomography experiments, based on the experience that the difference in multipath arrival time is between 10mS-20mS, the synchronization error between each hydrophone should be less than at least one order of magnitude of this value, so the 30-day synchronization error between each hydrophone is required to be within 1-2mS; in the application of underwater target detection, such as the detection of the horizontal azimuth of the target by the towed array and the detection of the vertical depth of the target by the vertical array, the synchronization accuracy between each hydrophone is required to be within 20μS.
[0003] In order to achieve the synchronous acquisition of acoustic signals of deep-sea vertical arrays, the following solutions are currently used: The scheme of using oil-filled array hydrophones for data collection uses a single clock for synchronous data collection to effectively solve the problem of synchronization accuracy. However, array hydrophones generally need to be arranged within the array aperture according to half the wavelength of the highest detection frequency. Taking the 1kHz detection frequency as an example, the spacing of the half-wavelength array is 0.75 meters. To cover the large depth range of the deep sea, the number of hydrophones required is huge. Although all hydrophones can be powered by the same wire, each hydrophone still requires a separate signal wire for data collection. Although segmented data collection can be used to reduce the number of wires, the huge number of hydrophones will still greatly increase the diameter of the array. In the range of large depths, the increase in scale is unacceptable.
[0004] Since the increase in the size of the oil-filled array hydrophone mainly comes from its wires, distributing the clock signal and power supply, acquisition and storage functions to each hydrophone array element to make a fully self-contained hydrophone has become the choice of many large-scale vertical array designs (i.e., eliminating the wires). However, each hydrophone requires a clock source, which greatly increases the absolute timekeeping accuracy requirements of each clock source. To achieve high-precision synchronous acquisition between hydrophones, a high-precision atomic clock is often required. The increased power consumption of the high-precision atomic clock leads to a significant reduction in the continuous working time of the fully self-contained hydrophone, or the battery capacity can only be increased to achieve long-term equipment duty, which is also unacceptable in practical applications such as underwater target detection.
[0005] The compromise solution is to use plastic-coated steel cables combined with electromagnetic induction coupling coils, or to fix small-sized electromagnetic induction synchronous cables on the load-bearing ropes to directly transmit clock signals to the self-contained hydrophones, while the power supply, collection and storage are solved by the hydrophones themselves. This method balances the contradictions such as the increase in scale brought about by high-precision synchronous acquisition to a certain extent, but there are still other problems to a certain extent. For example, the magnetic induction coupling transmission of plastic-coated steel cables requires the use of a long-distance solid steel cable. In the coverage range of several thousand meters in the deep sea, the weight of the solid steel cable will lead to a large increase in the required buoyancy materials. At the same time, the plastic-coated material of the solid steel cable cannot be damaged, otherwise it will cause the steel cable to be corroded by seawater and break, which is not suitable for long-term deployment. The method of fixing small-sized synchronous cables on the load-bearing ropes will also make the deployment and recovery process complicated and cumbersome when deployed in a vertical array at a great depth. The cable will be entangled or broken with the load-bearing rope due to the action of ocean currents, resulting in the failure of synchronous acquisition.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a better hydrophone synchronized array. Summary of the invention
[0007] In order to solve the problems and needs existing in the background technology, the present invention proposes a semi-self-contained hydrophone synchronous array based on load-bearing leakage cable signal reception and transmission.

[0033] The main connection assembly includes a connection piece 12, a connection cable 13 and a load-bearing tug 14. The top of the connection piece 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the main control electronic compartment 4. The load-bearing tug 14 is fixedly installed in the bottom of the connection piece 12. The connection cable 13 is connected to the load-bearing leakage cable 17 through the load-bearing tug 14. The connection cable 13 is connected to the main modem module 8 of the main control electronic compartment 4. A hanging ear 18 is also provided on the bottom tray of the connection piece 12 for mounting the connection protection rope during deployment.
[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, the load-bearing leakage cable 17 is a leakage cable with load-bearing capacity. The load-bearing leakage cable 17 includes an inner conductor 20, a dielectric layer 21, an outer conductor 23, a watertight layer 24, a load-bearing layer 25 and an outer protective layer 26, which are stacked from the inside to the outside; a plurality of slots 22 are provided in the outer conductor 23, and two adjacent slots 22 are in an eight-shaped shape, which are used to radiate signals, i.e., electromagnetic waves. A signal field strength is formed in the outer space of the cable, and the leakage cable can propagate electromagnetic waves along the axial direction of the cable, and can also propagate electromagnetic waves radially, so as to realize the transmission of clock and control signals. In a specific implementation, the load-bearing leakage cable 17 is a coaxial cable, and a plurality of slots 22 arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the cable are provided in the outer conductor 23 near each semi-self-contained hydrophone 16, and no slots 22 are provided in the outer conductor 23 at other locations. The inner conductor and the outer conductor are made of copper, the dielectric layer is made of polytetrafluoroethylene, and the watertight layer and the outer protective layer are both made of rubber. The bearing layer 25 is made of Kevlar fiber. In addition to having high tensile strength, Kevlar fiber has relatively small elongation, which can effectively protect the cable from being pulled and damaged by the heave force when it is deployed in a large area in the deep sea. Both the watertight layer and the outer protective layer have watertight functions, realizing double watertight protection.
[0035] Since the leaking cable is slotted at a fixed interval, the semi-self-contained hydrophone can be arranged at any distance on the leaking cable through a variable dielectric receiving and transmitting antenna structure, or arranged according to the half wavelength of the detection frequency according to the distance mark on the surface of the leaking cable, and the array form is flexible. The present invention solves the problem that the position of the oil-filled array or the vulcanized branch cable hydrophone is fixed and cannot be changed.
[0036] like Figure 3As shown, each semi-self-contained hydrophone 16 includes an insulating polyurethane dielectric layer 15, a receiving and transmitting antenna 30, a fastener, a connector 31, a slave matching module 32, a slave modem module 33, a slave signal generating module 34, a hydrophone acquisition storage module 35, a hydrophone battery pack 36, a pressure-resistant shell 37, a mounting frame 38, a hydrophone 39, a hydrophone protective shell 40, a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator, and a slave duty and main control circuit 41; the pressure-resistant shell 37 is fixed by the mounting frame 38 and the fastener Installed at the load-bearing leakage cable 17, the pressure-resistant shell 37 is equipped with a slave matching module 32, a slave modulation and demodulation module 33, a slave signal generating module 34, a hydrophone acquisition storage module 35, a hydrophone battery pack 36 and a slave duty and main control circuit 41. The slave duty and main control circuit 41 is connected to the hydrophone acquisition storage module 35 and a temperature compensated crystal oscillator. The slave duty and main control circuit 41 is connected to a hydrophone 39 installed in a hydrophone protective shell 40. An ordinary crystal oscillator is used in the hydrophone 39. The slave matching module 32 is connected to the slave duty and main control circuit 41 after passing through the slave modem module 33 and the slave signal generating module 34 in sequence. The slave matching module 32 is connected to the receiving and transmitting antenna 30 through the connector 31, and the hydrophone battery pack 36 is connected to the slave duty and main control circuit 41; the receiving and transmitting antenna 30 is arranged in the insulating polyurethane dielectric layer 15, and the receiving and transmitting antenna 30 is fixedly connected to the insulating polyurethane dielectric layer 15 through a fastener. The load-bearing leakage cable 17 and the receiving and transmitting antenna 30 are arranged in intervals and parallel to each other, and the distance between the load-bearing leakage cable 17 and the receiving and transmitting antenna 30 is set to 5cm-10cm. The insulating polyurethane dielectric layer 15 and the receiving and transmitting antenna 30 form a variable dielectric receiving antenna. The variable dielectric receiving and transmitting antenna mainly solves the problem that the electromagnetic signal radiated by the leakage cable in the marine environment is easily absorbed by seawater. The electromagnetic signal of the load-bearing leakage cable is transmitted to the receiving and transmitting antenna inside the polyurethane material, so as to realize the transmission across the seawater medium between the leakage signal and the hydrophone. The fasteners are specifically embedded nuts 27, screws 28 and pressure blocks 29. Several embedded nuts 27 are arranged in one side of the insulating polyurethane dielectric layer 15. The pressure blocks 29 cooperate with the embedded nuts 27 through the screws 28, so that the load-bearing leakage cable 17 is fixed to one side of the insulating polyurethane dielectric layer 15. The communication diagram between the receiving and transmitting antennas and the load-bearing leakage cable is shown in FIG. Figure 4As shown, the load-bearing leakage cable generates a leakage signal 42, and the receiving and transmitting antenna 30 generates a transmitting signal 43. The signal is transmitted through the variable dielectric layer formed by the insulating polyurethane dielectric layer 15, that is, a variable dielectric wireless signal transmission channel is established between the load-bearing leakage cable and the receiving and transmitting antenna 30 to complete the uplink and downlink transmission of data. The slave duty and main control circuit 41 generates a time base signal, and the debugging cable is also used to set the semi-self-contained hydrophone. Here, the work plan list of the semi-self-contained hydrophone needs to be set to the same place as the work plan list of the main control electronic warehouse. After the setting is completed, the slave duty and main control circuit 41 is in working state, and the rest such as the slave signal generation module 34, the slave modulation and demodulation module 33, the matching module 32, the hydrophone acquisition storage module 35 and the electronic warehouse acquisition storage module 9 enter the dormant state.
[0037] The present invention uses the principle of electromagnetic wave radiation of a specially designed load-bearing leakage cable to transmit control signals such as clock signals; at the semi-self-contained hydrophone end, a variable dielectric receiving antenna is used to receive signals, thereby realizing the synchronous reception of deep-sea vertical array sound signals within a large depth range. In addition, the vertical array sound signal data received by the semi-self-contained hydrophone is stored locally, and the data is transmitted to the main control electronic warehouse through the load-bearing leakage cable through the variable dielectric receiving antenna for storage and backup.
[0038] The working process of the semi-self-contained hydrophone synchronous array proposed by the present invention is as follows: The time base of the chip-level clock source 5 is obtained through the deck unit timing. The main duty and main control circuit 10 sleeps during non-working hours. The main duty and main control circuit 10 reads the time base signal after waking up 1 minute before working time, modulates the time base signal and sends it by the main matching module 6 and the bearing leakage cable, and the transmission frequency is not less than 1Hz. The semi-self-contained hydrophone is also provided with a duty circuit. This value can be changed according to the long-term timekeeping accuracy of the temperature-compensated crystal oscillator 1 minute before work. After waking up, it is determined to start reading the time base signal transmitted from the bearing leakage cable, and align its own time with the time base signal. When the specified work list time arrives, the sound signal collection is carried out. After the sound signal collection is completed, the main control electronic warehouse sends a command to the semi-self-contained hydrophone whether to transmit the sound signal, and the semi-self-contained hydrophone transmits the collected sound signal according to the transmission order. After completing a collection cycle, each device goes back to sleep.
[0039] In addition, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions and implementation methods of the present invention and are not intended to be limiting.
