摘要:
A high resolution bathymetric sidescan sonar system for measuring micro-geomorphy of the sea bottom having an underwater vehicle, an underwater electronic subsystem mounted on the underwater vehicle and containing a transmitter and a receiver, and two sonar arrays mounted symmetrically on two sides of a lower part of the underwater vehicle and being connected to the underwater electronic subsystem through a cable. Each sonar array has a transmitting linear array and three or more parallel receiving linear arrays. The parallel receiving linear arrays are arranged at equal spaces, and the space d between two adjacent parallel receiving linear arrays is λ>d≧λ/2, in which λ is a wavelength of an acoustic wave, and an operation frequency of the parallel receiving linear arrays ranges from 30 kHz to 1200 kHz.
