the USB interface is used for performing information interaction with a computer when the underwater sound modem is separated from the water surface;
the power supply module is used for supplying power to the underwater sound modem so as to enable the underwater sound modem to work normally;
the mode switcher provides two modes of transmitting and receiving separately and transmitting and receiving integrally, when the mode switcher is in the transmitting and receiving separately mode, the transmitting transducer and the receiving transducer are respectively independent transducers, when the mode switcher is in the transmitting and receiving integrally mode, the transmitting transducer and the receiving transducer are the same transducer, namely the transmitting transducer is called when transmitting information, and the receiving transducer is called when receiving information, and in the two modes, the working mechanisms of the mode switcher are the same;

the specific process of selecting the information transmission direction is as follows:
when a transmitting end transmits a signal, namely in a transmitting mode, the signal flows through the transmitting end and passes through an amplifying circuit, two rectifying tubes which are connected in parallel in a reverse direction are met, the signal can pass through the first rectifying tube of the mode switcher without distortion because the signal voltage is far greater than the forward conducting voltage of the first rectifying tube, and the signal drives a transmitting transducer to transmit information to an underwater sound channel under the lifting of a first power resistor; because of the isolation of the first power resistor, the signal flowing through the transmitting transducer is an amplified voltage signal, and therefore, the signal is immediately conducted after the signal reaches the first switching tube through the first power resistor, so that the signal voltage is directly grounded and cannot flow into the receiving transducer and a receiving end circuit; when the receiving transducer receives signals, the second power resistor is isolated, the generated current is small, and the switching tube and the rectifying tube cannot be conducted, so that the transmitting transducer cannot be driven, and the signals can well enter the receiving end circuit for demodulation.
