日本已提出并正在建造一个新的有效海底大地测量观测机器人网络系统，该系统由位于易受板间地震影响区域的若干海底站组成。每个站都配备了一个自主水下航行器（AUV）码头，通过电缆连接到陆地设施，提供电力和通信。在自主式潜水器码头附近，将设立三个或四个海底基准站，用于大地测量观测。在该系统中，电池驱动的AUV需要非接触式电源来进行长时间的观测。开发了一种容量为400 W的小型、智能、高效、大功率非接触式馈电系统，在盐水中逆变效率为77%。在水槽实验中，非接触电源自动为AUV供电3天，证明了该方法的有效性。
A new and effective seafloor geodetic observing robot network system, which consists of several submarine stations situated in regions susceptible to interplate earthquakes, has been proposed and is under construction in Japan. Each station, equipped with an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) dock, is connected to a land facility by cables providing power and communication. Near the AUV dock, three or four seafloor reference stations will be set up for geodetic observations. In this system, a noncontact power supply is required for a battery-driven AUV to conduct observations for extended durations. A small, intelligent, efficient, high-power noncontact feed system of 400W capacity with an inverting efficiency of 77% in salt water has been developed. It has been shown to be effective in a water tank experiment in which the noncontact power supply automatically fed power to an AUV for 3 days.
