Abstract: Methods and systems for synchronizing clocks used in underwater devices is described. All clocks have some drift due to frequency accuracy and this disclosure provides a method for periodically synchronizing clocks to an accurate master clock to remove long term drift. A synchronization device can use an accurate clock and hardware to transmit both a sound wave and light pulse at the same point in time. Remote slave clocks can detect the light first, and later the sound, allowing them to calculate the distance the pulse had to travel. The clocks can then synchronize their time to the master clock canceling out any drift. The synchronization device can be packaged in a waterproof housing and can be moved around on a periodic basis between the clock on an underwater robot or any other means.

Abstract: A transmitter includes an ultraviolet (UV) encoder conversion block that receives network data from a network interface to generate a conversion output. The UV conversion block converts the network data to a modulated signal that drives a plurality of multi-spectrum sources to generate the conversion output. A wave front optical component receives the conversion output from the UV conversion block and generates an output beam. The wave front optical component employs refraction compensation to mitigate absorption and scattering of the output beam in a liquid medium. An isotropic transmitter cluster transmits the output beam received from the wave front optical component as photon energy in the liquid medium. The isotropic transmitter cluster includes at least two transmitting nodes to facilitate transmission of the photon energy in a plurality of directions in the liquid medium.
