Abstract

Swath bathymetry, underwater searches, obstacle avoidance, and navigation are greatly enhanced by a high resolution, multibeam sonar. Acoustic lens technology provides a relatively compact and inexpensive sensor that can transmit and then receive multiple conical or rectangular beams using no beamforming electronics. The paper describes the basic components of a liquid-filled, spherical acoustic lens and provides both theoretical and empirical data which show lens beam patterns and how lens focus changes with temperature. The paper also describes a lens implementation in a compact, multibeam, diver-held sonar.<>

一种多波束、潜水员手持的声纳,使用充满液体的球形声透镜
高分辨率多波束声纳极大地增强了带状测深、水下搜索、避障和导航。声透镜技术提供了一种相对紧凑和廉价的传感器,可以传输和接收多个锥形或矩形光束,而不使用波束形成电子设备。本文描述了充液球形声透镜的基本组成,并提供了理论和经验数据,显示了透镜的光束模式和透镜聚焦随温度的变化。本文还描述了一种紧凑型、多波束、潜水员手持声纳的透镜实现。
