Spatial Focusing of Low-Mode Acoustic Signals in a shallow Sea with Underwater Flow

Abstract: UDC 534.231We analyze the possibilities of increasing noise immunity during observation of low-mode acoustic signals diffracted by a localized inhomogeneity against the noise background in shallow-water oceanic waveguides using vertical transmitting and receiving antenna arrays in the case where their deflections in the vertical direction, arising due to the influence of underwater flows, are assumed known. It is shown that compensation for the array inclination increases significantly the observation-region s… Show more

“…IN ACOUSTIC TOMOGRAPHY OF SHALLOW WATER SEA The efficiency of an acoustic system for tomogra phy of a shallow water sea substantially depends on how well the transmission and reception of probing signals are matched to the variability of the underwater (UW) waveguide [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Solving such a problem involves the optimal selection of the positions and sizes of antenna arrays and adaptive tuning of their aperture distributions to the waveguide characteris tics,which vary in time; reverberation disturbances and noise; and variations in the shape of the transmit ting and receiving arrays under the influence of under water currents [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16].…”

“…In practice, detailed data on the waveguide are often absent. In such a case, one can use waveguide models that are horizontally uniform along the path [7]. Figure 3 shows the results of optimally compressing the mode signals compen sating for intermode dispersion.…”

“…This method is based on the use of low-mode signals excited by vertical arrays [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. Numerical simulations and the corresponding experiments indicate that the quality of selection of the low-mode acoustic signals in the presence of noise in LMPAT schemes is determined by the quality of the signal-processing algorithms which should take into account the mode structure of the received and interference (undesired) acoustic signals, as well as their statistical spatial and temporal characteristics [1][2][3].…”
