Abstract

A new type of a vector hydrophone, a laser adaptive hydroacoustic intensimeter, is investigated. Two identical, spatially separated coil-type sensors are used as a primary receiver of the acoustic signal. The signals received at the sensor output are phase demodulated in a two-channel adaptive holographic interferometer based on two dynamic holograms multiplexed in a CdTe photorefractive crystal. Using a laser intensimeter, the acoustic field formed in a limited volume is studied. The performance characteristics of the intensimeter are determined experimentally; its threshold sensitivity, according to the acoustic field intensity, constitutes 0.1 × 10−13 W m−2.
