An Autonomous Combined Receiving Acoustic System Based on a Three-Component Vector Receiver and a Hydrophone

摘要

A hydroacoustic autonomous receiving system that uses a combined receiver has been developed for carrying out investigations of the vector-scalar structure of acoustic fields under shallow water conditions with a submersion depth as large as 100 m. The acoustic fields are investigated by measuring the acoustic pressure and three orthogonal components of oscillatory acceleration using sensors with a sensitivity of 150-180 V/Pa. Inaddition, data on the spatial position of the system from the orientation and depth sensors are synchronously recorded and, together with the data from acoustic channels, are saved to an SD card.
