چکیده

This paper discusses the effects of frequency selection on source localization and geoacoustic inversion methods that use frequency coherent objective functions. Matched-field processors based on frequency-coherent objective functions often have rapidly fluctuating range ambiguity surfaces. Insufficient sampling in frequency domain results in range aliasing terms that affect geoacoustic inversion. Range aliasing and its effects on source localization and environmental parameter inversion are demonstrated on data collected during the MAPEX2000 experiment. Guidance for frequency selection to avoid range aliasing is provided.

Inversion for Geoacoustic Model Parameters in Range-Dependent Shallow Water Environments from the SW06 Experiment

The ability to predict sound propagation in shallow water is limited by the knowledge of the geoacoustic properties of the ocean bottom. The long term goals of this research are: (1) to develop full field inversion methods for estimating parameters of geoacoustic models of the ocean bottom and the associated uncertainties in the model parameter values; and (2) to evaluate the performance of the...

Broadband synthetic aperture geoacoustic inversion.

A typical geoacoustic inversion procedure involves powerful source transmissions received on a large-aperture receiver array. A more practical approach is to use a single moving source and/or receiver in a low signal to noise ratio (SNR) setting. This paper uses single-receiver, broadband, frequency coherent matched-field inversion and exploits coherently repeated transmissions to improve estim...

Range-Dependent Geoacoustic Inversion: Results From the Inversion Techniques Workshop

Model-based geoacoustic inversion in range-dependent underwater environments is a challenging task constrained by data quality (synthetic or measured) and propagation-model efficiency and accuracy. The Inversion Techniques Workshop (ITW), held in Gulfport, MS, May 15–18, 2001, was organized for the acoustics community to present state-of-the-art numerical geoacoustic inversion capabilities in r...

Inversion For Geoacoustic Model Parameters In Range-Dependent Shallow Water Environments

Our ability to predict acoustic fields in shallow water is limited by the knowledge of the structure and the geoacoustic properties of the bottom, both of which may change with range. The long-term objective of this research project is to investigate broadband matched field inversion methods for estimating geoacoustic model parameters and their uncertainties, in shallow water environments that ...

The effects of ignored seabed variability in geoacoustic inversion.

Geoacoustic inversion using a matched-field inversion algorithm is a well-established technique for estimating the geoacoustic parameters of the seabed. This paper demonstrates how parameter estimation can be affected by unknown or wishfully ignored random range dependence of the true environment when the inversion model is--for practicality--assumed to be range independent. Simulations with co...
