Channel-adapted source for shallow water
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1993/08)In shallow water areas the utilization of active sonar is complicated by the fact that in these environments the performance of active systems is degraded by source signal interaction with channel boundaries. These boundary ... -
Connection between the solution of the Helmholtz and parabolic equations for sound propagation
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1975/10)Using a conformal mapping technique in a rectangular waveguide, we present an exact integral relation between the solutions of the Helmholtz equation whose sound speed c(x,y) varies as a function of both depth y and range ... -
Mode and PE predictions of propagation in range-dependent environments: SWAM'99 workshop results
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2000/05)Three numerical acoustic models, a coupled normal-mode model (C-SNAP), -
Numerical modeling results for mode propagation in a wedge
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1987/11)A PE (parabolic equation) code is used to study propagation in a shallow water wedge with a penetrable bottom. Particular attention is given to "wedge modes" that have wave fronts that are arcs of circles centered on the ... -
Numerical simulation of the effects of bathymetry on underwater sound propagation using three-dimensional parabolic models
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1998/03)Two different three-dimensional parabolic equation (PE) methods are -
Shallow-water coherence of broadband signals
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)The frequency-dependent spatial and temporal variabilities of sound propagation in coastal regions is investigated by ezperiment and numerical simulations. Experimental observations show that temporal coherence of the ... -
Sound propagation in a wedge-shaped ocean with a penetrable bottom
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1980/07)Modal cutoff during up-slope propagation in a wedge-shaped ocean is studied using the parabolic equation model; theoretical results are compared with some model tank experiments. -
Statistical characteristics of large-scale bottom reverberation
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1995/07)Simulation results from a statistical characterization of large-scale bottom reverberation from broadband signals are presented. The seafloor profile is parametrized via the surface root-mean-square height and correlation ...
