Abstract:
Fiber optic micro-cable has the advantages of light weight and low cost, and it can realize high-capacity and long-distance information transmission of remote control, navigational status, video, and so on between undersea vehicle and mother ship. It has extensive applications in torpedo, submarine-to-air missile, unmanned undersea vehicle, and underwater fiber optic network. This paper introduces the applications of fiber optic micro-cable to various types of undersea vehicles, and analyzes the application-concerned key technologies, such as cable manufacturing technology, spool winding technology, wire releasing dynamic loss control and optical fiber transmission technology. In addition, specific solutions to these key technologies are offered. This study may provide a reference for development of undersea vehicle’s remote high-speed communication.
