TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of marine seismic monitoring, and in particular to a construction system and method for a seabed seismic monitoring system. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the development and utilization of marine resources, marine seismic monitoring has become increasingly important. Traditional seabed seismic monitoring system construction often requires a dedicated survey ship to operate, which is costly, inefficient, and greatly limited by natural conditions such as sea conditions. At the same time, traditional construction methods also have certain deficiencies in the precision and stability of equipment installation, affecting the accuracy and reliability of seismic monitoring data.

[0041] The application has been illustrated by the above figures, and will be described in more detail hereinafter. These figures and the written description are not intended to limit the scope of the application in any way, but to illustrate the application to those skilled in the art by reference to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0042] The exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, like reference numerals refer to like elements, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The following exemplary embodiments are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all embodiments consistent with the application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of the application as detailed in the appended claims.
[0043] With the development and utilization of marine resources, marine seismic monitoring becomes increasingly important. Traditional submarine seismic monitoring system construction often requires a dedicated survey ship to operate, which is costly, inefficient, and greatly limited by natural conditions such as sea conditions. At the same time, the traditional construction method also has certain deficiencies in the precision and stability of equipment installation, affecting the accuracy and reliability of seismic monitoring data.
[0044] Traditional submarine seismic monitoring system construction mainly relies on a survey ship to operate. During the construction process, the survey ship carries various equipment and tools to the designated sea area. First, the submarine topography is detected by sonar and other equipment to determine the appropriate monitoring point position. Then, the seismic monitoring equipment (such as seismic detectors, data acquisition devices, etc.) is lowered to the seabed using the hoisting equipment on the ship. The transmission submarine cable is laid from the ship to the seabed by a special laying device, connecting each monitoring device and the data processing center. The rental, operation and maintenance cost of the survey ship is extremely high, and a large amount of manpower and material resources are required during the construction process, resulting in high construction cost.
[0045] At the same time, due to the openness of some sea areas, additional measures need to be taken to bury the transmission submarine cable and increase the protection measures. Burying the submarine cable increases the construction workload and difficulty, and is not conducive to subsequent operation and maintenance.
[0046] The buoy-type submarine seismic monitoring system mainly transmits data through wireless communication, which is easily affected by the marine environment, such as water absorption and scattering, resulting in poor stability and reliability of data transmission. In severe weather or complex marine environment, data loss or transmission interruption may occur, affecting the continuity of seismic monitoring.
[0047] The buoy floats on the sea surface and is easily affected by external forces such as waves, sea ice, and ship collisions, resulting in equipment damage. Moreover, the buoy is exposed on the sea surface and is easily attached and corroded by marine organisms, shortening the service life of the equipment.
[0048] The application provides a construction system and a construction method for a submarine seismic monitoring system, which utilizes existing structures and facilities of an existing wind power platform, does not need to additionally build a special monitoring platform or foundation, effectively reduces the cost of construction materials, manpower and time, and avoids a large amount of repeated cost investment; and the monitoring of pipe protection pulling can be completed by releasing an underwater robot, the labor cost is reduced, and the safety is improved.
[0049] The technical solutions of the application and how the technical solutions solve the above technical problems will be described in detail in specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes can not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of the application will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[0050] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the embodiment provides a construction system for a submarine seismic monitoring system, comprising a wind power platform 1, a construction ship 2, an underwater robot 3 and a submarine monitoring base station 4.
[0051] The wind power platform 1 is used to lay a winch, a sling, a beam clamp, a chain and a pulley.
[0052] The construction ship 2 is used to load the underwater robot 3, a water inlet bridge, a pipe protection, the submarine monitoring base station 4, a submarine cable 5, the winch, the sling, the beam clamp, the chain, the pulley, an unhooking device, an acoustic release and operating personnel.
[0053] The underwater robot 3 is used to monitor the pulling of the pipe protection.
[0054] The submarine monitoring base station is used to monitor submarine seismic data.
[0055] Specifically, the wind power platform 1 is used as a fixed support point for offshore construction, provides a device storage, power supply and operation platform. The winch is used to pull the submarine cable 5, and the speed and tension of the submarine cable 5 are controlled by mechanical power. The sling, the beam clamp, the chain and the pulley form a hoisting system, which is used to fix and adjust the position of the submarine cable 5 to prevent the submarine cable 5 from deviating or falling off during the pulling process. The pipe protection horn is a pre-embedded guide structure, which provides a stable sea inlet channel for the submarine cable and reduces the possibility of bending damage of the submarine cable. The submarine cable is pulled by the winch, and the direction of the force is changed by the pulley set to realize accurate laying of the submarine cable from the pipe protection to the seabed. The beam clamp and the chain are used to fix the temporary position of the submarine cable to ensure that the submarine cable will not be displaced due to wind and waves or ship sway during the construction process.
[0056] The construction ship 2 is used as a transportation device, performs submarine cable laying and submarine monitoring base station 4 deployment, and has the ability of operation command and emergency response. The water inlet bridge is used as a ramp structure erected between the ship and the sea surface to guide the submarine cable or heavy objects to enter the water smoothly and reduce the impact; the tensioner is used to control the submarine cable laying speed and adjust the submarine cable tension through hydraulic or mechanical devices to avoid excessive slack or breakage; the acoustic release is remotely triggered by acoustic signals to release the hook quickly in an emergency. The construction ship navigation positioning system ensures the stability of the ship body, and the real-time monitoring of the ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) is realized to achieve high-precision laying of the submarine cable route; the tensioner is synchronized with the moving speed of the ship to ensure that the submarine cable is evenly laid on the seabed and avoid accumulation or tensile deformation.
[0057] The underwater robot 3 replaces manual work to complete complex underwater operations and ensure construction accuracy and safety. The underwater robot 3 can perform high-definition imaging and size measurement on the pipe protector horn and seabed topography to verify the feasibility of the construction; and real-time observation of the process of the submarine cable entering the pipe protector to avoid jamming or wear; and assist in the position fine adjustment of the submarine monitoring base station after touching the bottom to ensure the horizontal stability of the device. The underwater robot can carry a multi-beam sonar, an optical camera and a mechanical arm, transmit power and control signals through a umbilical cable, and be remotely controlled by the construction ship.
[0058] The submarine monitoring base station 4 is used for long-term acquisition of seismic waveform, water pressure, temperature and other data, and transmits the data to the platform through the submarine cable 5. The submarine monitoring base station can convert mechanical waves into electrical signals through the seismic detector to sense the vibration of the seabed crust; amplify, filter and digitize the detector signal through the data acquisition device, store or transmit in real time according to the set sampling rate; and use the suction anchor or counterweight to fix the base station on the seabed through the anchoring system to resist the impact of ocean currents. By covering different directions through the detector array, the characteristics of P wave, S wave and other seismic waves are captured, and the data is transmitted to the wind power platform or the land center through the submarine cable.
[0059] The construction system for the submarine seismic monitoring system provided in the embodiment solves the problems of high cost, low efficiency and poor precision in traditional submarine seismic monitoring construction through the cooperative mode of wind power platform fixed support, construction ship dynamic operation and ROV intelligent monitoring; and effectively improves the precision and stability of the construction of the submarine seismic long-term monitoring network by using the existing wind power facilities to reduce the operation and maintenance difficulty and cost.
[0060] Figure 3 The flowchart of the construction method for the submarine seismic monitoring system provided in the present application is shown in FIG. 1, and the construction method for the submarine seismic monitoring system provided in the embodiment includes the following steps: Figure 3
[0061] Step S301: Control the construction ship to sail to the construction site, which is a predetermined area of the sea around the wind power platform.
[0062] Specifically, based on the geographic coordinates of the wind power platform, the construction ship can be controlled to move to the water area near the platform, i.e., the operation site, through a navigation positioning system (such as DP dynamic positioning). By determining the starting point of the construction, a reference position is provided for subsequent high-precision operations, effectively reducing sailing time and fuel consumption, and relying on the wind power platform to reuse its surrounding resources such as power and communication.
[0063] Step S302: Test and calibrate the navigation positioning system at the construction site to control the construction ship to sail to the target coordinate point of the construction site, and when the sea environment of the target coordinate point meets the wet measurement conditions, release the underwater robot to perform wet measurement and obtain the wet measurement result.
[0064] Specifically, the position deviation of the construction ship can be corrected by differential GPS, acoustic array, etc. to ensure positioning accuracy. After testing, it is ensured that the positioning error accuracy of the ship meets the preset operation conditions, and it is confirmed that the ship has the ability to maintain the position and heading in the preset operation range. After testing and calibration, the ship can be moved to the operation coordinate point in DP mode, and the underwater robot can be used to carry multiple beam sonar and high-definition camera to perform three-dimensional scanning of the pipe guard horn mouth and seabed topography, detect obstacles and marine bioattachment, verify the feasibility of the construction environment, and avoid reefs, gullies, etc. in the submarine cable route, thereby improving the success rate of construction and avoiding equipment damage or rework due to unknown environment.
[0065] Step S303: When it is detected that the wet measurement result permits construction, the site is set up on the wind power platform to complete the pulling preparation of the signal cable.
[0066] Specifically, the winch, pulley block and sling are pre-installed on the wind power platform, the submarine cable pulling path is determined through mechanical calculation, and a safety margin is reserved to provide mechanical support for the pulling of the submarine cable first end. By reducing manual intervention, the pulling efficiency is effectively improved, and the insulation layer is prevented from being damaged due to too small bending radius or uneven stress.
[0067] Step S304: Control the construction ship to approach the wind power platform, so that the orientation of the water entry bridge is opposite to the orientation of the underwater horn mouth of the pipe guard, and the signal cable in the pipe guard is delivered to the construction ship.
[0068] Specifically, the ship body attitude is fine-tuned by the ship propeller and rudder, the water entry bridge axis is aligned with the pipe guard horn mouth, the signal cable in the pipe guard is pulled out by the crane or winch, and connected to the temporary storage device of the construction ship. By establishing a physical connection channel between the submarine cable and the platform, the wear and tear of the submarine cable when entering the pipe guard is reduced, and the stability of signal transmission is ensured.
[0069] Step S305: Connect the signal cable with the head end of the submarine cable, and pull the submarine cable on the wind power platform while lowering the submarine cable on the construction ship until the head end of the submarine cable reaches the wind power platform.
[0070] Specifically, the hoist pulls the submarine cable, the force direction is converted through the pulley block, the submarine cable is controlled to enter the pipe at a constant speed, the tensioner dynamically adjusts the submarine cable tension, cooperates with the moving speed of the ship, maintains the catenary form of the submarine cable, realizes the reliable connection of the head end of the submarine cable and the platform, avoids excessive relaxation of the submarine cable (which may cause winding) or excessive tension (which may cause fracture), ensures the straightness of the route, and until the head end of the submarine cable reaches the wind power platform.
[0071] Step S306: Connect the head end of the submarine cable to the power supply of the cabinet, connect the tail end of the submarine cable to the seabed monitoring base station, and power on the seismograph to debug the seismic test process. When the debugging is completed, anchor the submarine cable on the wind power platform.
[0072] Specifically, the seismograph is arranged in the seabed monitoring base station and is fixed in structure. The seabed monitoring base station is arranged on the seabed within the length radius of the submarine cable centered on the wind power platform. The seabed monitoring base station contains an electronic cavity and a seismograph. The submarine cable is connected to the electronic cavity, and the electronic cavity is connected to the seismograph through a water-tight cable. The integrity of the submarine cable is verified through insulation resistance test and signal path detection; the distribution cabinet through-hole is filled with fireproof material (such as fire-resistant glue) to prevent fire from spreading along the submarine cable; hydraulic clamp or grouting can be used to fix the submarine cable to resist ocean current impact. Electrical connection and debugging are used to ensure the reliability of power and data transmission and improve system safety. At the same time, debugging the seismic test process can reduce the later operation and maintenance failures.
[0073] Step S307: Control the movement of the construction ship according to the preset submarine cable route to lay the submarine cable on the seabed, and connect the tail end of the submarine cable with the seabed monitoring base station at the end of the laying.
[0074] Specifically, the construction ship moves according to the preset route, the tensioner adjusts the output speed of the submarine cable in real time, the burying machine or the crawler-type cable laying device buries the submarine cable into the seabed, realizes the accurate coverage of the submarine cable on the seabed, and reduces the possibility of fishery activities or ship anchor damage.
[0075] Step S308: Place the seabed monitoring base station on the seabed and confirm the stability of the seabed monitoring base station to complete the construction of the bottom seismic monitoring system.
[0076] Specifically, the crane uniformly lowers the seabed monitoring base station, the ROV monitors the seabed monitoring base station in real time, and the acoustic release device is used as an emergency escape device, so that the base station positioning time is effectively shortened, the positioning accuracy is improved, and the long-term stable operation of the base station is ensured. The way to confirm the stability can be, for example: the ROV observes the size marks designed on the four corners of the seabed monitoring base station to preliminarily determine that the four corners are at the same height; or the software observes the horizontal angle instrument inside the seabed monitoring base station to ensure that the angle change within half an hour is not greater than 1°.
[0077] The construction method for the seabed seismic monitoring system provided by the embodiment of the application reduces the investment in special construction ships and temporary facilities, reduces the material, labor and time costs, and avoids a large amount of repeated cost investment by using the wind power platform infrastructure (power, communication and protection pipe); and the use of the underwater robot to complete the monitoring of the protection pipe pulling effectively reduces the labor cost, improves the construction safety and efficiency.
[0078] The embodiment details the process of testing the navigation positioning system and calibrating the positioning system on the construction site in the above embodiment to control the construction ship to travel to the target coordinate point of the construction site, and the specific implementation manner of the process includes the following steps.
[0079] Step a1: Detecting the positioning error accuracy of the ship on the construction site to confirm that the construction ship has the ability to stay within the preset operation range and heading of the target coordinate point.
[0080] Specifically, the positioning error of the multi-source positioning system (such as GPS, Beidou, acoustic array and inertial navigation) carried by the construction ship is calculated by comparing the real-time data of the multi-source positioning system. For example, the deviation between the actual position and the analysis position of the construction ship at the target coordinate point is measured by using the differential GPS (DGPS) or real-time motion baseline (RMB) technology combined with external reference points (such as a wind power platform or a seabed beacon). At the same time, the dynamic holding capacity of the ship under the interference of wind and waves, water flow and the like is analyzed, and the dynamic holding capacity can be tested by a closed-loop control system. The absolute accuracy and relative stability of the positioning system are verified. The staying capacity of the construction ship at the target point is confirmed to avoid the deviation of the construction ship from the target area due to the positioning error, which affects the accuracy of subsequent submarine cable laying or monitoring equipment installation.
[0081] Step a2: Detecting the deviation between the calibration data of the position reference system, sensors and each anemometer compass of the construction ship and the preset standard data on the construction site to confirm that the deviation is within the preset deviation range.
[0082] Specifically, the position reference system (such as a GPS antenna array) of the construction ship, sensors (such as an inertial measurement unit, IMU), an anemometer, and a compass are jointly calibrated. The influence of environmental interference (such as the ship's magnetic field, vibration, and temperature change) on the measurement is excluded; the consistency of multi-sensor data fusion is ensured, the positioning error caused by the deviation of a single device is avoided, and the redundancy reliability of the positioning system is improved.
[0083] Step a3: controlling the construction ship to travel to the target coordinate point of the construction site.
[0084] Specifically, the construction ship can be navigated by a navigation positioning system (DP) or a preset route. The navigation positioning system can use closed-loop control of the propeller, rudder, and side thruster to correct the position deviation in real time; control instructions are generated according to the preset route (such as a straight line or a curve), and the sailing speed is dynamically adjusted according to the sea conditions. The construction ship is accurately guided to the target coordinate point, providing a reference position for subsequent submarine cable laying or equipment deployment. During the travel process, small deviations can be corrected through real-time feedback data monitored by the underwater robot.
[0085] The embodiment of the application achieves data consistency through multi-system calibration to avoid error accumulation; and through the combination of deviation detection and holding capacity testing, the possibility of the construction ship deviating from the target point is reduced, and the accurate positioning of the construction ship in complex marine environments is ensured.
[0086] The embodiment details the process of wet testing the underwater robot released in the above embodiment to obtain the wet test results. The specific implementation of the process includes the following steps:
[0087] Step b1: releasing the underwater robot into the water.
[0088] Specifically, the underwater robot is smoothly placed into the water through a mechanical release device (such as a hoisting system or a slide rail), simulating the actual marine operating environment, preliminarily testing its sealing performance, buoyancy adjustment capability, and impact resistance, and ensuring the basic stability of the robot in the water.
[0089] Step b2: performing basic function testing on the underwater robot to obtain basic function testing results.
[0090] Specifically, the robot is instructed to perform basic actions (such as starting and stopping, light switching, and simple movement), and its response speed and state feedback are monitored to verify the normal operation of the core modules (such as communication, power supply, and propeller).
[0091] Step b3: performing sensor and navigation system testing on the underwater robot to obtain sensor testing results and navigation system testing results.
[0092] Specifically, by collecting underwater environmental data (such as water temperature, pressure, light, sonar image), comparing known standard values or redundant sensor data, verifying sensor accuracy and consistency. Using acoustic array, inertial navigation system or visual odometry, combined with pre-calibrated underwater coordinate points, detecting positioning accuracy and heading stability. Ensure that sensors (such as multi-beam sonar, high-definition camera) can accurately perceive the seabed terrain, obstacles and target objects, while verifying the reliability of the navigation system in complex environments (such as water flow interference, magnetic field anomalies), avoiding path deviation.
[0093] Step b4, mechanical operation test of underwater robot, get mechanical operation result.
[0094] Specifically, control the robot to perform complex mechanical actions (such as mechanical arm grabbing, gimbal turning, winch winding and unwinding), and test joint torque, motor power and hydraulic system pressure through load test. Check for wear, lack of lubrication or control algorithm defects in mechanical components in advance to prevent on-site operation failure, thereby improving the robot's ability to perform fine operations.
[0095] Step b5, organize basic function test results, sensor test results, navigation system test results and mechanical operation to get wet test results.
[0096] Specifically, the scattered test data (function log, sensor reading, navigation trajectory, mechanical action record) is summarized and combined with the preset standard (such as allowable error range, performance threshold) to get the wet test results.
[0097] The embodiment of the present application reduces the possibility of missed detection by directly testing in water, close to actual working conditions, and performing step-by-step testing.
[0098] In some optional embodiments, when the construction ship approaches the wind power platform, the distance between the construction ship and the wind power platform is kept within a range of 15 to 25 meters.
[0099] Specifically, by using navigation positioning system or anchoring system, combined with real-time monitoring technology (such as GPS, laser ranging, underwater sonar, etc.), the position of the construction ship is accurately controlled. The navigation positioning system adjusts the propeller, rudder and side thruster in a closed loop to offset the interference of wind and current on the ship body; the anchoring system fixes the ship position by adjusting the length and direction of the anchor chain.
[0100] The distance range is 15 to 25 meters, which is determined based on safety specifications and construction requirements. In order to facilitate operation, the distance can be selected according to actual conditions and requirements.
[0101] By maintaining a safe distance, the construction ship can avoid colliding with the wind power platform due to waves or currents, causing equipment damage or personnel injury; provides a buffer zone for submarine cable transmission, mechanical arm operation, etc. to prevent the ship body from shaking and interfering with precise operations, improving the precision of submarine cable transmission, lifting and other operations.
[0102] In some optional embodiments, the submarine cable is pulled on the wind power platform, comprising: starting the winch to pull the submarine cable on the wind power platform, and pulling the submarine cable on the wind power platform.
[0103] Specifically, by the motor driving capacity of the winch, the steel wire rope or synthetic fiber rope applies a controllable pulling force to pull the submarine cable from the construction ship to the wind power platform. The winch is equipped with a speed regulation system and a tension sensor to adjust the pulling force in real time, and cooperates with the pulley block to change the direction of the force to reduce friction loss. Through the pulley block and the fairlead, it is ensured that the submarine cable enters the platform along the preset path (such as the pipe protector and the J-shaped groove), and it is replaced by manual pulling to realize fast and continuous pulling of the submarine cable, avoid the submarine cable from being broken due to too large pulling force or being loose and knotted due to too small pulling force, ensure the uniformity of the submarine cable tension, avoid the internal optical fiber or power conductor from being invalid due to uneven stress, and effectively shorten the construction period.
[0104] The present embodiment details the process of connecting the first end of the submarine cable to the power supply of the cabinet in the above-mentioned embodiment. The specific implementation of this process includes: inserting the first end of the submarine cable through the through-hole into the power distribution cabinet inside the cabinet, and setting a protective tube at the through-hole before starting the power distribution cabinet to complete the power supply.
[0105] Specifically, inserting the first end of the submarine cable through the through-hole into the power distribution cabinet inside the cabinet provides a safe path from the external environment to the inside of the cabinet, avoiding direct exposure outside the cabinet, ensuring the stability of the electrical connection between the submarine cable and the power distribution cabinet, avoiding joint loosening due to external pulling, and reducing the corrosion possibility of external environment (such as salt spray, humidity) on the electrical equipment inside the cabinet.
[0106] By wrapping the contact part of the submarine cable and the through-hole with a protective tube at the through-hole, the protective tube prevents the submarine cable from being damaged due to vibration, friction or too small bending radius at the through-hole, prolongs the service life of the submarine cable, reduces the possibility of electrical leakage or short circuit caused by mechanical damage, ensures the sealing of the through-hole, and prevents seawater from penetrating into the inside of the cabinet along the submarine cable sheath.
[0107] In some optional embodiments, it also includes: implementing water-blocking plugging and fireproof plugging at the port of the protective tube.
[0108] Specifically, the water-blocking plugging at the port of the protective tube can use flexible waterproof materials (such as polyurethane sealant, rubber seal ring or epoxy resin) to fill the gap between the protective tube and the submarine cable, forming a physical isolation layer. The material needs to have resistance to seawater corrosion, elasticity and adhesion.
[0109] The fireproof plugging of the protection pipe port can be achieved by using fireproof materials (such as fireproof mortar, ceramic fiber or intumescent fire seal) to block the protection pipe port and form a fireproof barrier. If an electrical fire occurs inside the cabinet, the fireproof plugging can delay the spread of the fire through the protection pipe to the outside, reduce the damage of high temperature to the cable insulation layer, and avoid the expansion of the fire to the external cable route.
[0110] The embodiment details the process of controlling the movement of the construction ship according to the preset cable route to lay the submarine cable on the seabed. The specific implementation manner of the process comprises: controlling the movement of the construction ship according to the preset cable route, and setting the pay-off speed of the tensioner to be consistent with the movement speed of the construction ship. Until the end section of the submarine cable is about to leave the cable reel, the tensioner provides tension to the submarine cable, and a sling is tied at the end of the submarine cable, which is connected to the floor anchor of the construction ship.
[0111] Specifically, the pay-off speed of the tensioner is dynamically adjusted by the speed regulation system of the tensioner to be synchronized with the movement speed of the construction ship. The tensioner monitors the submarine cable tension in real time through the sensor to feedback control the pay-off speed. When the end of the submarine cable is about to leave the cable reel, the end of the submarine cable is fixed to the floor anchor of the construction ship by the sling, and the auxiliary tension is provided by the elastic or rigid connection of the sling. The stable submarine cable tension avoids the problems of insulation layer damage and optical fiber breakage caused by excessive bending or stretching of the submarine cable, and protects the end section to reduce the possibility of end jamming and prevent the submarine cable from being hooked by obstacles when it is dragged on the seabed.
[0112] In some optional embodiments, after setting the pay-off speed of the tensioner to be consistent with the movement speed of the construction ship, the process further comprises:
[0113] When the time for the pay-off speed of the tensioner to be consistent with the movement speed of the construction ship reaches a preset length of time, the pay-off speed of the tensioner and the movement speed of the construction ship are controlled to accelerate at a preset acceleration.
[0114] Specifically, after the tensioner and the ship speed are synchronized for a preset length of time, the control system sends instructions to gradually increase the pay-off speed of the tensioner and the power of the construction ship thruster, so that both of them accelerate at the same acceleration. The submarine cable tension and the ship speed are monitored in real time by the sensor to feedback adjust the acceleration, so as to ensure that the tension fluctuation is within a safe range during the acceleration process.
[0115] After acceleration, the operation speed of the construction ship and the tensioner is increased, the laying time of unit length of submarine cable is shortened, and in the case of strong current or large waves, the acceleration can offset external interference to maintain the stability of the submarine cable tension. The acceleration parameter can be dynamically adjusted according to different cable specifications (such as diameter and weight) and route environment (such as rock area and soft mud area) to improve the construction flexibility.
