Abstract

We propose a modified model for the frequency spectrum of surface reverberation with allowance for random drift of Bragg resonance harmonics due to long wind-generated waves. The dependence of this effect on the parameters of large-scale surface waves is analyzed. Analytical expressions for the reverberation frequency spectrum are obtained for both narrow-band and wideband sounding signals. It is shown that for matched filtering of wideband signals, the considered effect leads to an increase in the effective pulse reverberation volume.
