Abstract
The measurement of acoustic properties for passive-material samples is strongly interfered by reverberations in a limited space. A multichannel inverse filter (MIF) can achieve spatio-temporal focusing by retransmitting the optimal signal estimated from multichannel impulse responses of the transmitter channel and the underwater acoustic channel. To decrease the influence of reverberations on measurements and improve the measurement precision, a MIF is employed to measure the echo reduction and insertion loss, respectively. The method is demonstrated by simulations and experiments, which were performed in a cylindrical tank to measure the two acoustic parameters for a steel plate sample.
