BEAR Buoy: The Engineering Documentation for Scientific Application.

Abstract

The intent of this report is to serve as the working documentation of the BEAR (Bermuda Eleuthera Acoustics Range) Buoy System for scientific application. As such the report is oriented toward the engineering aspects of the project. The report includes the following: (1) a general description of the system by component subsystem; (2) a detailed engineering breakdown of the sensor subsystem and the development of the rationale used to determine the operational ranges of the sensors; (3) calibration procedures and the development of the data conversion transfer functions; and (4) a summary of the post-data processing methodology.
