Bias Buoy Electronics

Abstract

This operator's guide describes the bias buoy electronics. The bias buoy electronics provides low-power HF and UHF communications from a submerged submarine. Radio equipment and antennas, contained in a floatable buoy, are remotely operated by an inboard control unit through a 1500-ft retractable cable. The system includes a four-channel HF transceiver, four-channel UHF transceiver, VLF preamplifier, wideband VLF/MF/HF amplifier, IFF transponder, buoy with antennas, winch/nest assembly, tow cable, and inboard control assembly.
