FIELD: instruments. ^ SUBSTANCE: low-frequency electromagnetic signal is transmitted through the cable. Near the bottom of the water basin, above the cable and across its route, two identical equally oriented systems of magnetic probes tuned to the same frequency, placed at a fixed distance above each other, are moved. At the axis between the magnetic probe systems, a position transducer is placed, used to measure the angle Theta of deviation of this axis from the vertical. Under the lower magnetic probe system, an ultrasonic transducer is placed, used to measure the distance from it to the water basin bottom surface h. The signals from the magnetic probes, the position transducer, and the ultrasonic transducer, are sent to the processing unit. The underwater cable laying depth d is determined using the formula where D is the distance between the magnetic probe systems; alpha=EL/EU is the ratio of the magnetic field intensity measured by the lower magnetic probe system to the magnetic field intensity measured by the upper magnetic probe system. ^ EFFECT: increased accuracy and decreased cost. ^ 1 dwg |
