The socket can be used for charging a battery in the detection watertight electronic cabin 4, a data transmission cable can be connected to the socket, a detection result can be transmitted to the shore, and beacon detection equipment can be controlled through the cable.
Specifically, adopt the RS485 serial ports to carry out data transmission or control beacon detection equipment, when not needing diver's operation of launching, as long as put beacon detection equipment under water with a connecting rod, just can survey through cable control beacon detection equipment to watch the detection result on the host computer on the bank.
The process of detecting the underwater target by the underwater target ranging and directional searching system provided by the embodiment of the invention is as follows:
a diver or frogman detects an underwater target, firstly, a communication beacon is installed on the underwater target to be detected, and the communication beacon cannot actively emit an acoustic signal. When underwater targets need to be detected, a diver or frogman holds the beacon detection equipment by hand and transmits detection pulse acoustic signals to a sound field through the first detection transducer array 5 and the second detection transducer array 6. After the sounding pulse acoustic signal is emitted, the sounding microprocessor begins to continuously monitor the output signal of the signal conditioning circuit. When the communication beacon receives the detection pulse sound signal, the beacon underwater acoustic transducer converts the received detection pulse sound signal into an electric signal, the electric signal is sent to the beacon signal conditioning circuit after passing through the beacon transceiving conversion circuit, the signal is amplified and filtered in the beacon signal conditioning circuit, and finally the signal is sent to the beacon microprocessor. The beacon microprocessor carries out A/D acquisition on the signal output by the beacon signal conditioning circuit, receives depth data output by the depth sensor, amplifies the response pulse sound signal and the depth data together by the beacon power amplifying circuit, and transmits the response pulse sound signal to the sound field through the beacon transceiving conversion circuit and the beacon underwater acoustic transducer. When the transducer array monitors a response pulse acoustic signal replied by the communication beacon, the detection microprocessor calculates the distance of the beacon according to a time delay value between the response pulse acoustic signal and the detection pulse acoustic signal, then calculates the direction of the beacon according to the amplitude values of the response pulse acoustic signal received by the left array and the right array, and finally displays a detection result. If the beacon detection equipment is connected with the upper computer by a data transmission cable, the detection result can be sent to the upper computer on the shore through an RS485 serial port. Of course, the position of the underwater target can also be displayed through the electronic tube. In particular, referring to fig. 8, the distance of the communication beacon is shown by a set of light nixie tubes 8, which can be accurate to 0.1 m. The orientation of the communication beacon is shown by 11 leds, one white 9 in the middle and red 10 on both sides. When the communication beacon is within +/-5 degrees in front of the transducer array, only the light emitting diode with 0 degree in the middle is bright; when the communication beacon is in the range of 5-15 degrees in front of the left of the transducer array, the middle white light-emitting diode 9 and the left 10-degree red light-emitting diode 10 are on; when the communication beacon is in the range of 5-15 degrees at the right front of the transducer array, the middle white light-emitting diode 9 and the right 10-degree red light-emitting diode 10 are on; when the communication beacon is in the range of 15 degrees to 25 degrees in front of the left of the transducer array, the middle white light-emitting diode 9, the left 10 degrees red light-emitting diode 10 and the left 20 degrees red light-emitting diode 10 are on; when the communications beacon is in the range 15 deg. -25 deg. to the front right of the transducer array, the middle white light emitting diode 9, the right 10 deg. red light emitting diode 10, and the right 20 deg. red light emitting diode 10 are lit, and so on. The embodiment of the invention does not limit the specific display form of the detection result. If the communication beacon is installed on the underwater moving target, the underwater moving target can be positioned.
It should be noted here that, in order to avoid mutual interference between the probe pulsed acoustic signal and the response pulsed acoustic signal, the filling frequency of the probe pulsed acoustic signal is set to 50kHz, and the filling frequency of the response pulsed acoustic signal is set to 70kHz, so that the beacon underwater acoustic transducer receives the 50kHz acoustic signal and emits the 70kHz acoustic signal. Of course, other working frequencies may be designed, and the specific working frequency is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

Firstly, fixing a communication beacon on an underwater target, transmitting a beacon detection signal to a sound field by a diver or frogman holding beacon detection equipment, and receiving the beacon detection signal and replying a beacon response signal by the communication beacon; the beacon detection equipment receives the beacon response signal again, and obtains the position of the communication beacon according to the beacon response signal, so that the distance measurement and orientation are carried out on the underwater target, the technical problem that the underwater cooperative target cannot be accurately positioned in the prior art is solved, and the technical effect of ensuring the smooth operation of actual underwater exploration, explosion elimination, salvaging and the like is realized.
2. Through the use of the depth sensor, the depth of the communication beacon can be monitored, so that the depth of the target is monitored, and the positioning precision of the underwater target is improved.
Through installing the response beacon on target under water, through the handheld beacon detection equipment of diver or frogman, can measure the distance and the position of target in real time, realize the accurate positioning to target under water, supplementary diver or frogman carry out the accuracy to target under water and salvage, have effectively prevented losing of target under water.
