Besides, an unconditionally stable numerical solution is also presented, which entirely resolves the stability problem in previous methods. Generally the branch line integral contributes to the total field only at short ranges, and hence is usually ignored in traditional normal mode models. However, for the special case where a mode lies near the branch cut, the branch line integral can contribute to the total field significantly at all ranges. The wavenumber integration method is well-suited for such problems. Numerical results are also provided, which show that the present model can serve as a benchmark for sound propagation in a Pekeris waveguide.展开更多

Also, a sea-trial with broadband radiated source is conducted to verify the analysis results. Both the simulation results and the analysis of sea-trial data indicate that, in range-frequency domain, the four kinds of physical quantities will exhibit a stable interfer- ence structure which can be expressed with waveguide invariant /3. Among these quantities, the coherent components of complex sound intensity can better reflect the interference char- acteristics of the waveguide. Finally, a multi-scale linear filter is introduced to deal with the sea-trial LOFAR （Low Frequency Analysis Recording） spectrum, the processing results show that the proposed filter can effectively enhance the interference characteristics in images, and conductively detect and extract striations＇ information from interference structures in LOFAR spectrum.展开更多
