Abstract:
A method using focused beamforming to measure the distribution image (under-water image) of submarine and surface ship's noise sources is presented. Level linear array can measure the target image on water level, but the multi-path interference of underwater acoustic channel may affect the quality of it. Virtual time reversal mirror and virtual array can both solve the problem very well; they make the image with high resolution.
