Three-dimensional reverberation modeling.

Three-dimensional reverberation modeling.

Abstract

Previously, reverberation modeling at sonar and torpedo frequencies was based on spectral factorization, which does not allow correct broadband, non-zero Doppler simulation in real time for a multi-channel receiver. This paper presents a new approach which avoids these limitations. Instead of transmitting the pulse itself, the method transmits a superposition of many copies of the pulse, each with a random amplitude and phase. This “noiselet” mimics the point-scatterer method without requiring a prohibitively large number of scattering points. We refer to it as the early randomization method (ERM). The propagation model used, the GRAB ray model, contains the bathymetry information, enabling the ERM to produce a statistically realistic reverberation field with a minimal number of rays. The computational load increases linearly with the number of receiver elements instead of with its cube, since there is no power spectral density matrix to factor. Since the randomness is introduced directly into the noiselet, the ERM is not limited to a particular statistical model, allowing non-Gaussian cases to be treated. Previously, this approach has shown excellent results for the two-dimensional, range-dependent case. Here, the method is generalized to also allow cross-range dependence. Comparisons with the CASS/GRAB model are shown.
