ABILITY TO MONITOR DIVERS BY BREATHING NOISES
A problem of monitoring health status and location of diver during submerged training and working remains relevant in many practical applications. The experiments with divers, equipped with open circuit breathing apparatus are made. Lowfrequencyunderwater noise associated with breathing rhythm is detected in shallow water area. A recording of respiratory noise of the diver in the shallow water area allows to monitor the breathing rhythm and to estimate the bearing of location at ranges up to 20 m.
