Data transmisison in packet-switching protocol with guaranteed delivery and a follow-up notification of delivery as well as the potential for addressing up to 254 subscribers.

Immersion depth, temperature and supply voltage measurement of local and remote modems, and their distance estimation at the same time

Advantages

uWave Modem key advantages: small size and weight – only 41×45 mm at a weight of 0.16 kg (0.35 lb); low power consumption (Rx/Tx) 0,33/6 W and ease of use without any setup or calibration Once switched on, the user has immediate access to a transparent channel that does not require learning the control protocol.

Operates in two switchable modes: transparent channel mode, transmitting all incoming data to the hydroacoustic channel, and command mode, with the ability to send short queries to other devices and send 9 user commands;
Data transmission 78 bps;
Open configuration protocol;
Propagation time measurement;
Built-in depth/temperature sensor with up to 300 m depth estimation
Patented single-case design;
Packet-switching protocol with a guaranteed delivery (ALO – At-least-once);
Subscribers code division – up to 20; logical division – up to 254 (implemented at the protocol level);

Ideal for controlling AUVs and transmitting dada in user applications.
