This paper, in order to e m p h a s i z e this point, discusses the elli:ct o f wave height on b a c k g r o u n d noise a n d surface reverberation which imposes limitations on s o n a r a n d r a d a , effectiveness, a n d its effect on ship speed a n d ship d a m a g e .

T h e analog signal is converted !o a binary digital code and pho.'.ographi,:al{,, recorded for later processing. A qualitative m e a s u r e m e n t o f sea state is m a d e during each m e a s u r e m e n t cyclc, permitting a co~relation between wave height a n d a m b i e n t noise to be accomplished. Auxiliary devices are provided which effect buoy recovery upon reception o f a coded acoustic c~m> m a n d signal. The buoy is designed for operation at depths to 1000 feet with a duration on statio!i ~)~ three m o n t h s .
