The WKBZ mode approach to pulsed propagation in ocean channels

摘要

In the paper, the WKBZ normal mode approach has been applied to the propagation of the pulsed energy and waveform in ocean channels. The numerical results in two different channels are given. Comparison between the WKBZ and conventional normal mode codes shows that the WKBZ mode approach is a fast and accurate method and the running time by the WKBZ approach is reduced by about two orders of magnitude.
