    Ref: Section 13 Acoustic processing principles POSITIONING Positioning involves an acoustic cycle. The transceiver sends a Sonardyne Wideband®2 signal to the transponder. This activates the transponder which sends back a Sonardyne Wideband®2 signal to the transceiver. The transceiver will process the information received from the transponder as follows:...
