Abstract

Horizontal correlation is one of the most important characteristic parameters in ocean acoustics. In a shallow water acoustic experiment, we observed that the transverse correlation coefficient is an oscillation function of frequency. A model based on adiabatic normal mode theory in a random inhomogeneous waveguide which is statistically isotropic in a horizontal plane is developed. The theory indicates that the oscillation of the transverse correlation coefficient is mainly due to the normal mode interference.
