Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a long-distance transmission and reception RF gateway device service system and a method for transmitting acoustic signals and CFS signals. Background Technology
[0002] Conventionally, sonobuoys were dropped from aircraft, and aircraft or surface vessels were positioned in close proximity to the dropped sonobuoy. In other words, due to the short-range RF transmission after deployment, surface vessels or aircraft were deployed around the sonobuoy. Consequently, this increased the risk associated with location exposure.
[0003] A sonobuoy is a relatively small, consumable sonar device deployed into the water from aircraft or warships to detect submarines. Also known as an acoustic buoy, it is a small buoy (dropped from an aircraft) equipped with an underwater acoustic listening device and a transmitter for submarine detection; it receives underwater sound waves and retransmits them to a radio receiver.
[0004] After the sonobuoy is deployed underwater, a target is detected through an acoustic sensor, and when the acoustic signal is received in real time from an aircraft or surface ship, the sonobuoy operator listens to the acoustic signal and analyzes it using the LOFAR (Low Frequency Analysis and Recording) gram of the receiver.
[0005] In other words, deploying aircraft (tens of km) or surface ships (several km) in close proximity to sonobuoys resulted in limitations on reception at such close range between surface ships and sonobuoys, and there was a problem of delayed detection time due to target detection following the acoustician's auditory analysis.

[0032] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the overall configuration of a long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device service system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0033] As described, after being deployed underwater, the sonobuoy (100) detects a target (200) using an acoustic sensor. The acoustic signal generated at this time is transmitted through an RF antenna, and due to the short-range transmission method, a surface ship (several km) (300) or an aircraft (tens of km) (400) is positioned nearby.
[0034] After deploying the long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500), an acoustic signal can be transmitted to the satellite (600) using a satellite communication method. Subsequently, the satellite (600) transmits the signal to a receiving vessel of a surface ship (300) or aircraft (400) deployed at a distance. The transmitted signal, including the acoustic signal, is analyzed by the long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500), and after receiving the target detection notification signal, the target can be detected.
[0035] Figure 2 is a diagram showing the configuration of the long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device in Figure 1.
[0036] As described above, the long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500) of the present invention may be composed of a cylindrical launch tube (530), a cap launcher (510) coupled to the upper opening of the launch tube (530), and a piston assembly (570) coupled to the lower opening of the launch tube (530).
[0037] The launch tube (530) can be subdivided into a parachute assembly (540), a signal processing and transmission / reception assembly (550), and a seawater battery (560).
[0038] The parachute assembly (540) may consist of a parachute and a parachute connecting line for dropping the remote transmission / reception RF Gateway device (500).
[0039] The signal processing and transmission / reception assembly (550) may have a sonobuoy transmission / reception antenna (551) capable of transmitting and receiving signals from a sonobuoy (100) and a satellite antenna (552) capable of transmitting and receiving signals to a satellite built inside the buoy.
[0040] GPS information can be obtained through the GPS receiving circuit (553), and can be blocked by an RF blocking shield (555) to reduce signal interference with the RF transmitting and receiving circuit (554). Additionally, the transmitting and receiving signal can be transmitted to the RF transmitting and receiving circuit (554) through a cable.
[0041] The RF transceiver circuit (554) can generate a target detection warning signal after analyzing the transmitted and received signals through modulation and demodulation.
[0042] The RF transceiver circuit (554) can analyze the acoustic signal received through the sonobuoy transceiver antenna (551) to generate a target detection warning signal, and then modulate the target detection warning signal including the acoustic signal according to the satellite communication method and transmit it to the satellite (600) through the satellite antenna (552).
[0043] The gas cylinder opening / closing circuit (557) can be operated via a seawater detection circuit to prevent the long-distance transmission / reception RF Gateway device (500) from sinking into the water after being dropped.
[0044] The CO2 gas cylinder (556) can move the CO2 inside to the buoy through the gas cylinder opening / closing circuit (557).
[0045] The seawater battery (560) can supply voltage for operation after the long-distance transmission / reception RF Gateway device (500) reaches the seawater.
[0046] FIGS. 3 and 4 are drawings illustrating an example of a method for transmitting an acoustic signal using a long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0047] As described above, the method for transmitting an acoustic signal using the long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device of the present invention is as follows.
[0048] First, the sonobuoy (100) is set up and dropped, and after the sonobuoy (100) reaches the sea surface, the seawater battery is activated so that the sonobuoy (100) can operate at the set value. At the same time, the long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500) is dropped, and after the long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500) reaches the sea surface, the seawater battery can be activated.
[0049] Acoustic signals detected by the sonobuoy (100) can be generated and modulated and transmitted to a remote transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500) via up to 16 channels (16 sonobuoys).
[0050] The RF transceiver circuit (554) of the long-distance transceiver RF Gateway device (500) can demodulate and analyze the acoustic signals of up to 16 channels of each sonobuoy received through the sonobuoy transceiver antenna (551), process (preprocess) the detection results, and generate a target detection alarm signal. It may be desirable to generate a target detection alarm signal by accumulating real-time acoustic signals and comparing them.
[0051] The RF transceiver circuit (554) can modulate a preprocessed signal, including an acoustic signal, to match the satellite communication method for the target detection alarm signal for satellite communication. At this time, it may be preferable to modulate it with a center frequency of about 1.6 GHz.
[0052] The satellite antenna (552) of the long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500) can transmit the satellite signal modulated by the RF transmission and reception circuit (554) to a receiver on a surface vessel (300) or aircraft (400) located at a long distance, and the transmitted signal can be analyzed and demodulated at the receiver to use the signal.
[0053] FIGS. 5 and 6 are drawings illustrating an example of a CFS signal transmission method using a long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0054] As described above, the method for transmitting a Command Function Select (CFS) signal using the remote transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500) of the present invention is as follows. Here, Command Function Select (CFS) may refer to a method of setting GPS settings, operating time, communication channels, etc. after dropping a sonobuoy.
[0055] First, the long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500) is dropped, and after the long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500) reaches the sea surface, the seawater battery can operate.
[0056] The setting value of each sonobuoy (100) can be changed at the receiver of the aircraft (400) or surface ship (300). At this time, the number of sonobuoys (100) that can be changed is up to 16 Channels (16 shots), and the setting value of each sonobuoy may include depth, lifespan, sensor, and Automatic Gain Control (AGC) values.
[0057] The CFS signal modified at the receiver of the aircraft (400) or surface ship (300) can be transmitted to each sonobuoy control command signal to the satellite (600) after modulation at the receiver.
[0058] The long-distance transmission and reception RF Gateway device (500) can receive and demodulate up to 16 channels of each sonobuoy (100) CFS signal transmitted from the satellite (600) through the satellite antenna (552).
[0059] The RF transmission / reception circuit (554) of the remote transmission / reception RF Gateway device (500) can analyze the CFS signal that has been received and demodulated through the satellite antenna (552). That is, after analyzing the setting value changed according to the CFS data packet standard, it can be modulated into a signal that allows the CFS setting of the sonobuoy to be enabled, and each sonobuoy CFS signal can be transmitted through the sonobuoy transmission / reception antenna (551).
[0060] Each sonobuoy (100) can receive a modulated CFS signal transmitted through the sonobuoy transmitting / receiving antenna (551) of the remote transmitting / receiving RF Gateway device (500), analyze it, and change the setting value.
[0061] As such, the present invention enables the transmission of detection and warning signals through acoustic signal analysis including sonobuoy acoustic signals, enables long-distance deployment of surface ships or aircraft using a satellite communication method, and allows changing the setting values of each sonobuoy by transmitting multiple CFS signals.

The scope of the present invention shall be determined by a reasonable interpretation of the appended claims, and all modifications within the equivalent scope of the present invention are included within the scope of the present invention.
