水平变化波导中两种耦合简正波方法的比较与分析

分析比较了处理水平变化波导中声传播问题的两种耦合简正波方法:DGMCM(Direct-Global-Matrix Coupled-Mode Method)和CCMM(Consistent Coupled-Mode Method)。首先,两种方法都提供声场的双向解,具有很高的计算精度。其次,DGMCM和CCMM中本地垂直模式序列均具有较快的收敛速度,但DGMCM比CCMM需要较少的水平分段数。再次,两种方法通过求解不同的耦合简正波系统得到声场解,但求解过程中所需参数的计算量基本相同。另外,DGMCM能够处理某些CCMM不容易解决的问题,如海底形状不平滑,线源在斜坡海底上方,以及多声源问题。在DGMCM方法中给出了双层波导问题的耦合矩阵解析表达式,还推导更新了CCMM模型,使其能够处理二维线源问题。 

Comparison and analysis between two coupled-mode methods for range-dependent sound propagation

Two coupled-mode methods, namely DGMCM (Direct-Global-Matrix Coupled-Mode Method) and CCMM (Consistent Coupled-Mode Method), are analyzed and compared. First, both of these two methods provide two-way solutions, and hence they are accurate models. Second, the series of local vertical modes in DGMCM converges as fast as that in CCMM, whereas DGMCM has a more tolerable requirement of the number of segments than CCMM. Third, these two models obtain the field solution by solving the coupled-mode system with different coefficient matrices, in which the computational effort for the required parameters is almost the same. Finally, DGMCM can handle some problems which are difficult for CCMM, such as in a waveguide with a rough bottom, a line source located right on top of a sloping bottom, or in the presence of multiple sources. In DGMCM, closed-form expressions for coupling matrices in a two-layer waveguide are given. In addition, the formulation for the line-source problem in plane geometry is derived to update CCMM.
