Abstract
This paper describes the underwater acoustic telemetry system and some results of the field operation of this system. The system consists of two units ; the one is the underwater unit (transmitter) and the other is the deck unit (receiver). The underwater unit is self-contained and can measure water temperature, and transmits the temperature information as a modulated supersonic F-M signal to a hydrophone connected to the deck unit. The received signal is demodulated to recover the original information through the deck unit which is a specially designed F-M discriminater and is then recorded on a D. C. recorder
