Abstract

In underwater acoustic communication networks, most of the energy used by the modem is consumed in waiting for data reception. We designed an on-duty circuit to reduce power consumption when the network is idle. The on-duty circuit uses a separate low-voltage power supply. To control the on-duty circuit, the status of the modem is divided into three operating modes: the sleep mode, the monitor mode and the working mode. When the network is idle, the underwater acoustic modem turns to the sleep or monitor mode, which reduces power consumption. By calculation and experimental verification, it is verified that four D-size lithium batteries can support the on-duty circuit for 3 years in monitor mode and for more than 10 years in sleep mode.
