摘要: Transducer driving methods and transducer driving systems are described. According to one aspect, a transducer driving method includes providing a plurality of initial driving signals to a transducer, wherein each of the initial driving signals has a respective one of a plurality of different frequencies, identifying one of the frequencies where the transducer has a reduced impedance as a result of the provision of one of the initial driving signals having the one frequency to the transducer compared with impedances of the transducer resulting from the provision of others of the initial driving signals having others of the frequencies to the transducer, determining that the identified one of the frequencies is not acceptable for driving the transducer, as a result of the determining, identifying another of the frequencies, and driving the transducer using another driving signal having the another frequency.

摘要: An improved sensor fish with robust design and enhanced measurement capabilities. This sensor fish contains sensors for acceleration, rotation, magnetic field intensity, pressure, and temperature. A low-power microcontroller collects data from the sensors and stores up to 5 minutes of data on a non-volatile flash memory. A rechargeable battery supplies power to the sensor fish. A recovery system helps locating sensor fish. The package, when ready for use is nearly neutrally buoyant and thus mimics the behavior of an actual fish.
