The present Note describes some experimental work related to the nonlinear propagation of acoustic waves in granular media such as unconsolidated glass beads. The studied nonlinear effect is a self-demodulation process performed with the operation of the so-called parametric transmitting antenna. The pump (or carrier) wave is generated by a high power ultrasonic broad-band transducer (100 kHz central frequency) which is LF (low frequency, i.e., a few kHz) amplitude modulated. As the attenuation of acoustic waves increases with frequency, only the LF demodulated wave can be transmitted. A parametric study is performed where the HF central frequency is monitored between 60 and 300 kHz. The LF demodulation profile versus the HF frequency is modified, its shape being temporally derived almost twice. A numerical analysis of the order of temporal derivation is done in the Fourier domain, its value varying from 1.25 to 2.7. Qualitative agreement with current theoretical models is described, and an advanced theoretical analysis by the same authors [Phys. Rev. E 66 (2002) 041303], taking into account absorption, nonlinearity, dispersion and scattering, is briefly discussed.
