Abstract

Focusing on the disturbance of ocean reverberation in active sonar detection, this article researched the characteristics of vector ocean reverberation when vector hydrophones were the receivers. By experiments and theoretic analyses, scalar and vector ocean reverberation was gained when transmitting signal with different frequencies, impulse widths, receivers at different depths, and the source levels and laws of energy attenuation were analyzed statistically. By comparison, reverberation received by vector hydrophones was found to have characteristic of lower reverberation levels and faster attenuation, thus, vector hydrophones have the ability of anti-reverberation.
