  • Analysis of Bottom-Track and Compass Error in a Self-Contained Acoustic Doppler Diver Navigation Console
    JULY 2010 H E N C H A N D R O S M A N 1229 Analysis of Bottom-Track and Compass Error in a Self-Contained Acoustic Doppler Diver Navigation Console JAMES L. HENCH Marine Laboratory, Nicholas School of the Environment, Duke University, Beaufort, North Carolina JOHANNA H. ROSMAN Institute of Marine Sciences, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Morehead City, North Carolina (Manuscript received 2 November 2009, in final form 16 February 2010) ABSTRACT The Cobra-Tac (Teledyne RD Instruments) is a self-contained diver navigation system based on acoustic Doppler velocity log (DVL) technology that uses dead reckoning to compute displacements from a known starting point. The navigational accuracy of the system was evaluated using a series of field tests with known solutions. Initial test data had an obvious directional bias in the navigation measurements, with positional errors as large as 5% of the track length. An analysis of this error showed that the DVL speed measurements were extremely accurate and that most of the position error could be explained by heading-dependent compass error. Compass error versus heading curves were different depending on whether a given route was mapped in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, and further testing indicated that this was due to a combination of local magnetic field anomalies at the test site and instrument tilt. A postprocessing correction procedure, based on a one-cycle compass error model, was derived that significantly improves Cobra-Tac position estimates. After correction, position errors were well within manufacturer specifications. Further tests using new firmware that permitted in situ underwater compass calibration gave position errors of less than 1% of the track length.

Periodically, you need to disassemble the system and clean all the components separately. The TAC-100A and its components are designed for the rigors of un- derwater use and should provide many years of use, but keep in mind the TAC-100A is a diving instrument and should be treated as such.
