The unit is designed for bulkhead mounting close to the hull
unit.
The transceiver units are equipped with different filter boards
for HiPAP® 100 and HiPAP® 501/541/351.
5.5 Responder Driver Unit (option)
The Responder Driver Unit provides responder trigger signals to
responders.
The unit can be used for HiPAP® transceiver unit x81 and x21.
The Responder Driver Unit is a stand-alone unit.

5.6 Transducers
HiPAP ® 500
transducer
The HiPAP® 500 transducer has a full spherical transducer
body including 241 transducer elements, the elements covers
its entire surface area except for a small cone around the
”north-pole”. The large number of elements enables narrow
receiver beams to be generated. The transducer is mounted on
the hull unit.
HiPAP ® 450
transducer
The HiPAP® 450 transducer is the same unit as the HiPAP®
500 but only the 46 lower sector elements of the sphere are
“activated” and in use.
HiPAP ® 350
transducer
The HiPAP® 350 transducer has a spherical transducer with a
cylindrical body including 46 transducer elements, the
elements covers its’ +/- 60° cone pointing downwards. The
large number of elements enables narrow receiver beams to be
generated. The transducer is mounted on the hull unit.
HiPAP ® 100
transducer
The HiPAP® 100 transducer has a planar transducer array with
a cylindrical body including 31 transducer elements. This
model has good accuracy in the ± 60º coverage sector and is
suited for operations where the major positioning targets are
within this sector.
