Optimized Design of a Sonar Transmitter for the High-Power Control of Multichannel Acoustic Transducers

For driving multichannel underwater acoustic transducers, the integrated design of the transmitter based on the analysis of the widely distributed impedance should be considered. Previous studies focused on either the matching circuit or the fast resonant tracking control. This paper proposes the de...

The equivalent circuits of the transducer are more precisely designed by using the measured data in both air and water.
