Teledyne PIONEER DVL

Teledyne RD Instruments’ 150 kHz Phased-Array Doppler Velocity Logs (DVLs) include the industry’s first DVL designed to provide precision velocity data at ranges of 500 m above the sea-floor.

This extended range makes the Pioneer DVLs ideally suited for aiding navigation systems onboard small, medium, and large platforms where the ability to transition from the deep waters of the open oceans to the shallow environments of the littoral zone is a critical enabler.

Additionally, these DVLs can also be leveraged for surface and submarine manned and unmanned ves-sels. Utilizing state-of-the-art electronics, the 150 kHz Pioneer DVLs provide expanded connectivity with other sensors while minimizing overall power consumption.

These powerful DVLs use Teledyne RDI’s proven bottom detection algorithms and single ping bot-tom location capability with its Broadband velocity processing technology, providing users with highly reliable precision velocity data for navigation and position processing, even over indeterminate terrain.
