PRINCIPLE OF MEASUREMENT
PRINCIPLE OF MEASUREMENT, FEATURES
When a moving vessel emits an acoustical pulse into the water
at an angle, a portion of emitted energy is reflected from the
seabed and other microscopic objects in the sound path, such
as plankton or air bubbles. The frequency of the received
signal is shifted from the transmitted frequency in proportion to
relative velocity between the vessel and underwater reflecting
objects. This is called Doppler Effect.
The CI-80 calculates and displays movements of ship and
currents at specific depths by measuring Doppler shifts
obtained from three separate directions.
Frequency of reflected signal is
shifted in proportion to relative speed
between the vessel and reflecting
objects.

Ship’s Speed (Here, speed is a vector value including velocity and direction.)
Depending on the base of measurement, ship’s speed is
expressed in two ways:
Ground tracking speed: Ship’s speed and course relative to
(Absolute speed)
seabed (fixed base)
Water tracking speed: Ship’s speed and course relative to
(Relative speed)
water layer just below the vessel
(floating base)

Tide is movement of watermass at a particular depth.
To know absolute tide (speed on ground), the following two
data are required:
1
Ship’s speed and course based on ground
2
Ship’s speed and course based on measuring layer (A)
Absolute tide is, then, given as a difference of these two speed

Nav Tide
Nav-Tide is an absolute movement of watermass at a particular
depth, taking speed information from the external navigator
(GPS) as a pseudo ground tracking speed.
To calculate Nav-tide, the following two data are required:
1
Ship’s speed and course obtained by external navigation
equipment (GPS)
2
Ship’s speed and course based on measuring layer (A)
Nav-tide is, then, given as a difference of these two speed

Assume that the ship and layer A are moving in the same

A (Vwa) are measured as;

Vwa = 7 kt (Ship’s speed based on layer A).

Speed of layer A based on ground (C1) can be calculated as
follows:
C1 = Vg – Vwa
= 10 – 7
= 3 (kt)
Nav-Tide (Absolute tide)
Absolute tide can be measured in the nav-aided mode.
Nav-aided ship’s speed (Vn) is equivalent to ship’s ground
tracking speed in the ideal conditions. That is, the nav-tide can
be calculated by simply replacing Vg with Vn in the above
equation.
Tide Differential
Tide differential is a relative movement of tides at different
depths.
It can be measured in the ground tracking, water tracking and
nav-aided modes.

Assuming that the ship, layer A and layer B are moving in the
same direction, and ship’s speeds based on layer A (Vwa) and
on layer B (Vwb) are measured as;
Vwa = 8 kt (Ship’s speed based on layer A)
Vwb = 5 kt (Ship’s speed based on layer B)
Tide differential calculations in ground tracking mode
As an absolute ship’s speed (Vg) is available in the ground
tracking mode, tide speeds of layer A (C1) and layer B (C2)
based on ground are calculated as follows:
C1 = Vg - Vwa (Speed of layer A based on ground)
C2 = Vg - Vwb (Speed of layer B based on ground)
Thus, the tide differential (Cd) between layer A and layer B is;
Cd = C2 - C1

Speed of layer A

In the water tracking mode, watermass just below the
transducer (near-surface layer) is taken as the base of all
measurements (virtual ground). Therefore, the ship and tide
speeds in the water tracking mode are not absolute but relative
to this near-surface layer.
Vw = 9 kt (Ship’s speed based on near-surface layer)
Vwa = 8 kt (Ship’s speed based on layer A)
Vwb = 5 kt (Ship’s speed based on layer B)

IMPORTANT NOTICE ON TIDE MEASUREMENTS
(In the nav-aided mode, tide accuracy depends heavily on gyro
accuracy.)
SETTING SHIP’S HEADING
The CI-80 has the nav-aided mode to measure absolute tides
even in deep waters where ground tracking is unattainable. To
achieve reliable measurements, however, you must supply
accurate heading (gyro) information and ship’s position (or
speed/course) data to the CI-80.
If you are going to use the nav-aided mode, set the reading of
the AD converter (gyro interface) exactly with that of the master
gyrocompass.
Procedure
1. Confirm that the gyrocompass has settled and all the
necessary compensations (latitude compensation, weather
compensation, etc.) are made correctly.
2. Operate the AD converter to obtain the same reading as
you read on the master gyrocompass. (Do not make
adjustment while the ship is turning.)

Figure 9
If the gyro reading is accurate, the CI-80 should provide
accurate tide information. If the gyro data contains some error,
however, you may see the following symptoms.
• Set/drift information on the nav-aided mode differs from that
on the ground-tracking mode.
• Tide/tide differential information on the nav-aided mode
differs from that on the ground-tracking mode.

Features
The CI-80 mainly consists of three units: a display unit, a
transceiver unit, and a transducer, each compact enough to fit
on small boats.
The main features of the CI-80 are;
• Even in deep waters where ground (bottom) reference is
not available acoustically, the CI-80 can provide absolute
movements of measuring layers by receiving position (or
speed) data from GPS navigator and heading data from
gyro compass. It may be used on deep sea fishing boats or
on ocean research vessels.
• Triple-beam system for automatic compensation against
pitching and rolling of vessel.
• Single mold transducer for excellent mechanical beaming
accuracy.
• DC powered for economic operation.
• Alphanumeric information display on high resolution 10 inch
color CRT.
• Simultaneous display of tide vectors and ship’s track.
Indispensable for maneuvering and docking.
• Echo level display constantly displays underwater
conditions of three sounding beams.
• Target point feature predicts flow of objects (for example,
fishing tackle) against tide.
• Easy-to-follow menu operation for control of various
settings and measuring conditions.
