摘要

1. A method for controlling the acoustic characteristics of a network of acoustic nodes located along a towed acoustic linear antennas, and the network of acoustic nodes configured to determine the inter-node distances, allowing you to determine the location of the linear acoustic antennas, in which the specified method contains the following steps: - determining the location of the acoustic network nodes; - obtaining at least one property of the marine environment related to the area of exploration using a network of acoustic nodes; - EFINITIONS amount of acoustic characteristics of the acoustic network nodes, using the model of the sound propagation for the determination of at least one property of the marine environment and to determine raspolozheniya.2 circuit. The method according to claim 1, wherein the predetermined arrangement is determined by at least determining the horizontal distances between the acoustic nodes and the determined immersion depth of each acoustic node. The method according to claim 1, wherein the step of determining the number of acoustic characteristics for at least one given pair of nodes, including the transmitter node and the receiver node, comprises the following stages: - evaluating the properties of the propagation of the acoustic signal through the underwater acoustic channel between the transmitter node and the node the receiver of this pair of nodes, using the specified model of sound propagation and knowledge: the immersion depth of the transmitter node and the receiver node, the horizontal distance between the transmitter node and the receiver node, and less at least one property of the marine environment, including at least an estimate of the sound velocity profile of the underwater
