Experiments on excitation and receiving of coherent high-frequency acoustic signals in a shallow-water region of a marine shelf

摘要

Possibilities of formation of coherent high-frequency signals for underwater acoustic observations in shallow-water shelf zones of the ocean with an irregular bottom are experimentally investigated. The methods of medium-conjugate excitation and receiving of complex modulated pulses with the help of vertical and horizontal arrays are probated. It is shown that medium-conjugate spatial, frequency, and time filtering makes it possible to decrease reverberation interferences by more than 40 dB.
