Definition | A low frequency acoustic positioning system designed for use in deep water, utilising transponders with a depth rating down to 7000 metres, whilst the transducer has an operating range of 1 - 10,000 meters. The HiPAP has applications in towfish and towed platform tracking, seabed reference for dynamic positioning of a vessel, high accuracy subsea metrology and positioning, telemetry and scientific research. The system is primarily used to position ROVs and other objects in very deep water and at long ranges, using either or both super short base line (SSBL) and long base line (LBL) principles. The instrument operates in a frequency band of 10 - 15 kHz, and features narrow 15 degree listening beams, with a range detection accuracy of 0.02 metres. | |
