Abstract

Vertical phased array is an efficient and complex equipment in underwater acoustics. Single-mode excitation and time-reversal sound focusing are two typical techniques based on vertical phased array, but both of them have some shortcomings. In order to realize sound focusing at variable distance and depth using vertical phased array, two techniques are proposed in this paper. One of them is the Green's function construction of target sound field based on normal mode eigen-function and attenuation coefficient extraction, and the other is controllable sound focusing based on optimal target sound field determination. Simulation and experiment results are presented. This technique indicates a method for objective depth detecting in shallow water.
