High-frequency acoustical observation of inhomogeneities in shallow water oceanic waveguides with an irregular bottom in the presence of strong reverberation

摘要

Possibilities of high-frequency acoustical underwater observations of small-size objects in marine shelf zones are experimentally investigated using vertical and horizontal arrays radiating and receiving complex structure pulses in the presence of strong reverberation. Reconstruction of parameters of the observed objects yielded 35- to 40-dB weakening of the reverberation interferences due to medium-matched spatial, temporal, and Doppler filtering.
