Experimental research of the interference and phase structure of the power flux from a local source in shallow water

Abstract

The paper studies the interference structure of low-frequency tonal and wideband signals in shallow water, received by four-component vector-scalar modules. The spatial amplitudes and phase characteristics of the scalar field are analyzed, as well as three components of the vibration velocity vector and the power flux vector. A relationship is established between the zone of interference maxima and minima and the phase gradient in the horizontal and vertical plane, the change in direction of the vertical and horizontal components of the vibration velocity vector, and the change in the depression angle of the power flux vector in the horizontal plane.
