Signals and Systems in Underwater Acoustics
Outline
1. Generalities of sound propagation in the ocean
2. Sound speed in sea water
• calculating the sound speed profile• typical profiles• ocean stratification
3. The deep ocean and coastal areas: transition zone
4. Transmission loss: border and frequency effects
5. Ambient noise
6. Sonar equation

7. Aplications:
• active and passive sonar• echosounding and fishing• geotechnical and oil exploration• ocean thermometry and tomography• marine mammal monitoring• underwater communications• localization and navigation• port and waterway protection
8. Examples of real signals
9. The ocean as an input - output model

Generalities of sound propagation in the ocean (1)
Sound attenuation in the ocean at high Ambient noise power due to:
frequency with T = 25◦C and sismic noise, thermic agitation
S = 35 ppt. rain, surface noise, etc.
(Tolstoy & Clay, AIP, New York, 1987)

Generalities of sound propagation in the ocean (2)
• intermitent local effects
• permanent effects
• low frequency:earthquake and explosionswind in shallow water
• mid frequencyshipping noise
• high frequencysurface wavessurface noisewind and waves

Generalities of sound propagation in the ocean (3)
Most important factors in ocean sound wave propagation
1. the (variation) of sound speed
2. water depth
3. media interface type
4. sound frequency λ = cf

Sound speed in the ocean
• the speed of sound in the ocean was measured for the first time by Colladon andSturm in 1827, in the lake of Geneva, Switzerland, having a value close to 1500 m/s,but varying with pressure (depth), with temperature and with salinity according toan empirical formula given by:

Sonar equation (1)
SONAR SOund NAvigation and Ranging: the sonar equation has the objective toprovide a simple method for determining the detection level of a given target in realconditions.
Active sonar in noise DT = SL + DIt + TS - 2TL - (NL-DI)
Active sonar in reverberating noise DT = SL + DIt + TS - 2TL - RL

Sonar equation (2)
Example: we want to detect a target with an active sonar with a transmit power of SL= 150 dB, a directivity index of the receiver DI = 10 dB, a TS = 10 dB, and a DIt=25dB in an ambient noise NL = 40 dB,
Active sonar in noise DT = SL + DIt + TS - 2TL - (NL-DI)
