- Abstract
We propose and test in a field experiment a method that uses an emitting vertical array to focus a field to a given depth interval in a vertical section of an underwater sound channel at the observation distance. The amplitude-phase distribution of signals at the array elements is found by solving the variational problem of maximizing the ratio of mean sound field intensities inside and outside the chosen area of the section. The introduction of an additional restriction on the range of allowable grazing angles of excited waves has made it possible to obtain a solution in the form of a wave beam propagating without bottom reflections. Such solutions can be used for field focusing without information on the bottom parameters.
