SYSTEM FOR LOCALISING AND POSITIONING TOWED ACOUSTIC LINEAR ANTENNAS INTEGRATING MEANS FOR LOCAL FEEDBACK CONTROL OF ANTENNA NAVIGATION CONTROL MEANS

摘要

The invention relates to a system for localising and positioning towed acoustic linear antennas, which linear antennas each have means for measuring the distance (T) of at least one adjacent linear antenna, with navigation control means (B) distributed over the length of said linear antennas being associated with each linear antenna in order to act at least laterally on the position of said linear antennas, characterised in that it includes, for each linear antenna, means for feedback control (A) of said control means (B) distributed over the length of said linear antennas and intended to communicate locally with said distance measuring means in order to collect and process data provided by said distance measuring means (T) and to control, according to said data, said control means (B).
