摘要
Acoustic wave time reversal self-focusing in underwater waveguide is studied. The acoustic wave time reversal is theoretically and experimentally investigated in a half-infinite fluid medium and a shallow fluid layer placed on a hard half-infinite solid medium, respectively. The ray approach method is adopted to study the far field of the acoustic field in theory, and the ultrasonic experiments have been carried out in laboratory to model the underwater waveguide. It is shown by theoretical and experimental results that the focusing gain can be improved by 12 dB or more.
