Abstract
A moored-buoy system for collecting near real-time seismic data from
the coastal ocean has been developed and will be deployed for its initial field trial
in the fall of 2016. The technology that makes possible the near real time telemetry
of seismic data is the inductive modem technology. This type of data telemetry
provides a solution that is convenient, economical, reliable, and flexible. We present
results of a prototype system that demonstrate the feasibility of this concept. It will
transmit continuous data at a rate of about 1000 bps to a radio link in the surface
buoy. A GPS receiver on the surface buoy will be configured to perform accurate and
synchronized timestamps on the seismic data on the sea surface, which will make
it possible to include data from these undersea systems in the existing seismic data
network. Power to operate the system will be supplied by solar panels and rechargeable
batteries on the surface buoy and batteries on OBS.
