Abstract :
As ocean insonification for basin scale Ocean Acoustic Tomography (OAT) appears to be a rather complicated and expensive matter, it is then interesting to get as much as possible information from each insonification. One possibility is then to increase the number of reception points. In that context, IFREMER started the design of a new autonomous receiver which could fulfill OAT requirements
