GeoSpectrum Technologies Unveils Powerful Compact Long-Range Underwater Acoustic Effector

GeoSpectrum Technologies (“GeoSpectrum”), an Elbit Systems’ subsidiary, announces the introduction of the C-Bass family of compact Very Low Frequency (VLF) long-range acoustic underwater transducers.

GeoSpectrum introduced the underwater transducers, a deployable system that is small in size and weight but still maintains the high-power and frequency range (bandwidth).

The effector ranges exceeding 2500 km and capable to effectively operate under ice, this transducers is suitable for a wide range of sub-sea applications including: communication/transmission from shore or surface units to submarines; divers’ alert and communications; communication with Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) for control/positioning; mine sweeping, as well as augmentation of submarine signatures when transiting in or out of ports or narrow passages.

C-BASS transducers are available in a variety of sizes and configurations from the 20 cm diameter configuration that can even fit in a medium UUV up to the 1.1 m diameter unit used in a multi-source high-power configuration for seismic exploration.
