Reducing the influence of a transition process in field calibration of hydrophones at low frequencies with the use of quadrature-added harmonic signals

  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

A method of reducing the signal settling time in a transmitter–receiver system in field calibration of a hydrophone at low frequencies in a non-anechoic water tank based on correction of the radio frequency response is considered. The advantage gained with the use of the radiation of quadrature-added harmonic signals in precise low-frequency calibration of hydrophones by comparison with pulse-tone radiation is demonstrated.
