reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA020845 | Open PDF

Abstract:

This report contains the operating instructions and circuit diagrams for the low frequency portable beacons being added to the Navigation, Tracking, and Communications NTC acoustic navigation subsystem at Fort Lauderdale, Florida. While designed for use at the Naval Surface Weapons Center Test Facility, the portable beacons combined with the Applied Research Laboratories ARL range readers constitute a totally portable navigation system that could be used wherever water depths are not greater than 2000 ft.
