Abstract

A communication system for use with a device located within a containment vessel, comprises a control unit having means providing two-way packet radio frequency communication; a command unit for attachment to a device in a vessel and having means for providing bidirectional low frequency electromagnetic communication; and a translator unit for converting control unit radio frequency transmissions to corresponding low frequency electromagnetic signals and for transmitting the corresponding low frequency electromagnetic signals and for converting command unit low frequency electromagnetic signals to corresponding radio frequency signals and transmitting the corresponding radio frequency signals. The command and translator units utilize 'near field' electromagnetic fields to effect location, two-way communication, command and control beween units through the wall of a pipeline, storage tank or other containment vessel to effect efficient location and control of devices deployed within conducting ferromagnetic containment vessels such as steel pipelines or storage vessels is difficult without intrusion into the vessel by wires and probes.
