Title: Odd Trandem: Innovator in Acoustic Technology

Introduction

Odd Trandem is a notable inventor based in Trondheim, Norway. He has made significant contributions to the field of acoustic technology, holding a total of 3 patents. His innovative work focuses on devices that enhance the transmission and reception of acoustic signals.

Latest Patents

One of Odd Trandem's latest patents is an acoustic device and method for amplifying and imprinting information on an interrogating signal. This acoustic transponder provides information related to the transponder when it receives an acoustic interrogating signal. The transponder includes a power supply, an electronic circuit connected to the power supply, and one or more transducers that receive and emit the acoustic signal. The electronic circuit features a sequence generator, an amplification and modulation unit, an extraction filter, and a suppression filter. The extraction filter is designed to extract the received acoustic interrogating signal while suppressing other signals before being input to the amplification and modulation unit. This unit modulates the received acoustic signal according to a sequence generated by the sequence generator and amplifies the modulated signal. The suppression filter is responsible for suppressing the received acoustic interrogating signal from the amplified and modulated signal. The amplified modulated signal is then transferred through the transducers of the transponder and/or other transducer(s).

Another significant patent is for a semi-passive acoustic transponder that provides identity information related to the transponder when it reflects a received pulsed acoustic signal underwater. This transponder includes a memory unit that holds ID-sequence data controlling the operation of a switching device. The electronic circuit features frequency adjusting means for modifying the frequency and duration of the switch, ensuring that the duration of the ID-sequence data is shorter than the duration of the pulses of the received acoustic signal. Additionally, this method and system can provide position and identity information related to one or more of these semi-passive acoustic transponders.
