Engineering Physics Annotation << Back An Unmanned Specialized Platform for Acoustic Protection of Catches of Fishing Companies from Marine Mammals Naumov D.G., Mayss А.А., Malashenko A.Е., Decik A.А. The paper provides an analysis of the solution of one of the tasks that has long needed to be solved in fi shing, the protection of catches of fi shing companies from marine mammals. The analysis of methods for protecting catches from marine mammals based on hydroacoustic effects and the removal of marine mammals from fi shing gear is presented. One of the possible ways to solve the protection of catches may be the use of a hydroacoustic method for the removal of marine mammals on the basis of autonomous remote-controlled ships equipped with a complex of specialized technical means. The rationale for the use of a situational awareness subsystem in combination with a reliable communication system for remote-controlled ships with a remote control center as part of unmanned marine facilities is given. An assessment of the economic effi ciency of the use of non-emergency means to protect catches from marine mammals is given. Keywords: marine unmanned specialized platforms, situational awareness, sonar emitters, bioacoustic signals, economic efficiency. DOI: 10.25791/infi zik.12.2024.1445 Pp. 35-45.
