Abstract: A system for measurement of ocean current near the surface wave field. The system includes a controlled buoyancy platform having a current sensor. Upper and lower plural roller assemblies are affixed to the platform for limiting platform motion along a guide line. In one form, each guide assembly includes a plurality of rollers adapted to freely track the guide line so that the platform is both substantially free to move along the guide line in response to pressure gradients from the surface wave field and also substantially decoupled from twisting and axial motions of the guide line.

Abstract: A recording instrument for use in ocean depths and like remote locations and adapted to provide meaningful readings of temperatures and pressure, for example, at such locations over a long period of time without attendance. Analog signals from transducers, which indicate the level of the thing-to-be-measured, are processed to give an averaged digital signal that is then stored on a magnetic tape. The system is battery powered. The instrument detailed is for use at ocean depths where the instrument housing and attachment to a mooring line are of particular importance.

Abstract: A clock generator source, a plurality of which can be used as redundant clock sources in a fault tolerant clock system. The input and output clock signals of said source being formed of a plurality of pulses having a frequency substantially higher than the frequency of the input and output signals, one pulse being omitted in each cycle thereof to form a "dead interval" therein when the input and output signals are in phase. When the output signal is not in phase with the input signal at the start of a cycle the length of the cycle of the output signal is either lengthened or shortened by inserting a second dead interval or omitting the dead interval, respectively, to bring the input and output signals in phase by the end of the cycle.
Abstract translation: 时钟发生器源，其多个可以用作容错时钟系统中的冗余时钟源。 所述源的输入和输出时钟信号由具有显着高于输入和输出信号频率的频率的多个脉冲形成，每个周期中省略一个脉冲，以在输入和输出时形成“死区间” 并且输出信号同相。 当输出信号与周期开始时的输入信号不同相时，输出信号的周期长度分别通过插入第二死区间隔或省略死区间来延长或缩短，以使输入信号 并在周期结束时同相输出信号。

Abstract: A system for measuring ocean characteristics. The system includes a sensor assembly and an associated means to control the system buoyancy to achieve cyclic ascent and descent at controlled speeds, either along a mooring line or free-drifting. Buoyancy control is provided by a pump assembly including two rolling diaphragm-sealed, low friction displacement pistons driven by a high torque d.c. motor operated at low speed. There are four functional groups of data gathering instrumentation. The first group measures horizontal water transport, and includes sensors for current (flow velocity), system azimuth, system tilt, and vertical velocity. The second group provides a determination of salinity, and includes sensors for conductivity, temperature and pressure. The third group monitors conditions within the system, and includes sensors for internal temperature and humidity. The fourth group monitors conditions utilized in the buoyancy control, and includes sensors for pressure (depth and depth rate) and piston position. A programmed microprocessor configuration provides overall operational control for the system.

Abstract: A fault-tolerant clock system for providng digital timing signals (system clock signals) is provided by a plurality of clock sources. Each clock source receives as inputs the generated clock signals from all the other clock sources and contains receiver circuitry to derive a system clock signal from said clock sources which is the consensus clock signals of the other sources. Each clock source generates and distributes to the other clock sources a clock signal which is phase locked to the derived system clock from its clock receiver. In a system of (2r+2) clock sources (r+2) of them will remain phase locked to each other despite up to r clock source failures. Any clock receiver responsive to any (2r+1) of the clock sources can therefore derive a correct system clock despite up to r clock source failures.
