Introduction
The LUMA 250 LP (low power) is an optical modem for fast, reliable underwater
communication. Each LUMA 250 LP is a full transceiver and thus capable of half-duplex
communication (transmission and reception). A deep-sleep mode which the modem will enter
after no data was received or transmitted for a set amount of time drastically reduces the
power consumption. During deep-sleep the receiver is still active and the modem will wake up
within 100ms after receiving a beacon message from another modem.
