Chronicles of the 2022 Baikal Expedition. Acoustic modems

At the end of the last week, acoustic modems were delivered to the ice camp after long delays. The tenth cluster and two new experimental strings of the future eleventh cluster could not be assembled without them. Acoustic modems are mounted on the string in the same way as optical modules and used to monitor the location of the string in real time as it can be deflected from its usual position by undercurrents.
