My planned Computerized
High Speed Underwater sleigh. The pictures below are mixed with very old ideas before
the technology existed and new with the latest tech ideas. |

Fig 9: Components used in the underwater navigation system drawn 2005 The buoys (A, B, C) have built in GPS receiver, ZigBee transceiver, Ultra sonar transceiver, rechargeable batteries and solar power cells for charging. The Ultra Sonar Transceivers (TRX1,TRX2,TRX3) have a powerful transceiver, rechargeable battery, temperature sensor, pressure sensor, communications processor and a wireless radio transceiver for connection to PDA, headset and pressure sensor measuring the air tank pressure. The PDA (PDA1, PDA2, PDA3) has a graphic screen and a couple of buttons for operation and selection of presentation. There is a powerful built in processor and a wireless link to Ultra sonar transceiver. The PDA is placed on the divers arm and the transceiver is mounted on the back-pack air tank. The network is configured automatically as a Mesh network with type like ZigBee technology. It is possible to follow all divers’ data and positions from an external PDA in a boat. The information is received wireless with ZigBee system. A possibility to speak to each
other is carried out with the wireless headset. An effective data compression
and communication protocol makes it possible with ultra sonar connection. |

Fig 10: Position navigation with 3 ultra sonar buoys. Drawing from 1985. The buoys are passive
and will be activated with significant modulated ultra sonic waves. A
significant wave is received back where the delay tells how far the buoys are
from the submarine. In this way the position can be calculated according to
positions of the buoys. Each buoy have a GPS receiver which tells the
absolute position. This information is carried digital over the ultra sonic
waves. The absolute position of the diver/submarine can any time be
calculated no matter where the buoys positions A, B and C are thrown into the
water. |
