Shallow water temporal coherence of broadband acoustic signals in the presence of internal waves

Temporal coherence is closely related to single path phase rate. The single path phase rates in a shallow water environment were obtained by applying two different multipath models [Dyson, Munk, and Zetler, J. Acoust. Soc.

Description
Summary:Temporal coherence is closely related to single path phase rate. The single path phase rates in a shallow water environment were obtained by applying two different multipath models [Dyson, Munk, and Zetler, J. Acoust. Soc. Am., vol. 59, pp. 1121-1133, 1976 and Mikhalevsky, J. Acoust. Soc. Am., vol. 66, pp. 751-762, 1979] on simulated data with internal waves. The estimated phase rates were consistent between the two models. In contrast, previous application of the same models on deep water data showed a factor of 8 difference in their phase rates. The phase rates derived from the models become independent of range after a uniform phase distribution is reached in the (-/spl pi/,/spl pi/) region. The shallow water coherence time varies considerably with depth at a given range. The depth dependence is explained with a correlation function constructed with mode depth functions.
