需要在南极高原上为无人仪器提供一整年的电力，这带来了大量的工程和后勤挑战。在理想的实验室环境中制定的设计在南极地区由于恶劣的工作条件而经常失败，并且需要现场经验才能在100 W功率范围内实现全年运行。在本文中，我们提出了我们目前的自动地球物理观测站的电源设计，设计的基础上超过二十年的经验，在冰上，并允许在上述功率水平相对连续的操作。我们还讨论了我们的各种实施方法，失败和成功，在努力帮助其他无人部署在冰上。
The need to provide power to unmanned instrumentation over the course of an entire year on the Antarctic plateau presents a large number of engineering and logistical challenges. Designs formulated in ideal laboratory environments often fail in the Antarctic due to the harsh operating conditions, and field experience is necessary to achieve year-round operation in the 100 W power range. In this paper we present our current power design for the Automatic Geophysical Observatories; a design based on over two decades of experience on the ice and allows for relatively continuous operation at the aforementioned power level. We also discuss our various implementation methods, both failures and successes, in an effort assist other unmanned deployments on the ice.
