水下声成像中旁瓣抑制方法及其实验研究

提出了一种近场条件下采用不等间隔阵并进行孔径变迹处理的水下声成像旁瓣抑制方法,并进行了理论和实验研究。考虑以球面波传播理论为基础的聚焦波束形成,首先通过阵元位置微调,设计了可实现低旁瓣的不等间隔阵,从单程波束响应上降低旁瓣;然后,将孔径变迹处理方法应用于水下声成像中,全部阵元用于接收,部分阵元用于发射,从双程波束响应上进一步降低旁瓣。通过水池实验对所提出的方法进行了验证。结果表明:采用不等间隔阵并进行孔径变迹处理可以更为有效地降低旁瓣,而主瓣仅有小量展宽,且该方法工程应用简便易行,在改善成像质量的同时降低了系统复杂度。      

非线性声场中的参量激发

本文基于求解单频声波方程近似解的方法,得到了非线性声场中谐波的声压与介质性质、初始声压幅值及频率之间的定量关系.并对两列相对声压幅值和相对频率不同情况下的声场分布进行了研究.通过分析单、双频声源辐射场中的谐波分布和传播规律发现:在非线性声场中会不断地出现新的谐波,激发的各阶谐波随着声波传播距离的增大逐渐增强而后减弱.在声源的附近,谐波的声压随基波声压振幅的增大而增大;但在基波的频率增大时反而会减小.在输入总声能相同的情况下,与单频声场相比双频声源辐射场的声能量分布较均匀,声的传播距离较大,远场中的谐波含量较大.结果表明,基波的频率越高,衰减得越快,谐波的积累越缓慢;声压的极值越大,基波声能量转移得越多,产生的谐波越多,基波的衰减越快,声压对远场声能的负效应增大;如果改用多频声源,并适当地控制输入声波的组成成分,可以达到改善声场分布均匀性、增大声辐射距离的效果.

Reduction of the error of hydrophone calibration with respect to the field in a hydroacoustic tank by the reciprocity method

A hydrophone calibration procedure that considerably reduces the error caused by the acoustic field distortions in a hydroacoustic tank is proposed. The procedure is based on the definition of the reduced electric transfer impedances of transducers (i.e., the electric transfer impedances reduced to the spherical wave propagation law) and consists in measuring the electric transfer impedances for different distances between hydroacoustic transducers. The sensitivity of the hydrophone under calibration is calculated from the far-field values of the reduced electric transfer impedances. The latter are determined using a mathematical model of the hydrophone in the form of a system that contains a point sensing element and a finite number of point sources of acoustic signals (point reflectors). A method of determining the number and coordinates of the point reflectors from the analysis of the acoustic “images” of the hydrophone’s reflecting surface is proposed. The measuring technique, the algorithms of mathematical processing, and the results of experimental studies are considered. A comparative analysis of the results of the hydrophone calibration with respect to the field by the reciprocity method is performed for the cases of using the conventional technique and the proposed method.

Hydrophone calibration in the presence of reflecting elements with the use of matched spatial filtering

A method of determining the parameters of sources of reflected waves is considered. The method is used for precise free-field hydrophone calibration. It is based on expanding the dependence of the transfer impedance of the projector and the hydrophone on the distance between them in the spatial functions of sources of spherical waves. The expansion of the dependence of the transfer impedance is performed with the use of the matched filtering. It is shown that the method makes it possible to determine not only the parameters of a remote source, which is related to the underwater structure of the standard, but also the parameters of a closely located source formed by the hydrophone itself. The location of the source formed by the hydrophone determines the possibility of a precise calibration of the hydrophone in a standard calibration tank with specified dimensions of the working zone.

A multiple-frequency hydrophone calibration technique

A method is described for comparing the sensitivity of two hydrophones over the frequency range 1-15 MHz. This technique forms the basis for the dissemination of national ultrasonic standards in the U.K. over this frequency range. A reference hydrophone is placed in an ultrasonic field and then the device being calibrated is substituted and the two output voltages are compared. This substitution method utilizes a broadband ultrasonic field produced by nonlinear propagation. Thus it is possible to cover the whole frequency range with a single measurement on each hydrophone. The overall uncertainty in the intercomparison of two hydrophones increases from +/- 4.2% at 1 MHz to +/- 8.2% at 15 MHz (95% confidence level). The method has been compared with discrete-frequency substitution, time-delay spectrometry, and absolute calibrations using the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) Primary Standard Laser Interferometer. Various designs and sizes of hydrophones were compared, and agreement was within the combined random uncertainties for all the comparisons.

Fiber-optic hydrophone using a cylindrical Helmholtz resonator as a mechanical anti-aliasing filter

Two Michelson interferometric fiber-optic hydrophones that use panda polarization-maintaining fibers and devices have been constructed and tested. The low-frequency acoustic sensitivities of both hydrophones are -159 dB re 1 rad/microPa. One of the hydrophones tested has a small cylindrical Helmholtz resonator that has a break point near 1200 Hz and a measured roll-off of approximately 50 dB/octave, and it is a hydrostatic-pressure-insensitive design. This hydrophone is a prototype device for a class of sensors that can be used to eliminate aliasing in future sonar systems. To our knowledge, this is the first time that such a fiber-optic hydrophone has been reported.
