Abstract :
Considers the development of a profiler acoustic array, the purpose of which is to operate on a deep-water autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) platform. The transmitting array consists of separate composite piezo-ceramic modules with a frequency range of 2-10 kHz and a receiving array with resolution about 0.1 to 0.2 m
