MATHEMATICAL SIMULATION OF SPATIAL CORRELATION OF INTENSITY FIELD OF A BROADBAND ACOUSTIC SOURCE IN SHALLOW WATER
Correlation characteristics are considered of the field intensity interference modulation of a broadband acoustic source in shallow water. The concept used here is that of spatial correlation of a regular two-dimensional structure as a convolution integral with averaging over two coordinates (frequency, distance). The dependence of the spatial correlation interval on the frequency band is studied. Possible methods to determine the distance to the broadband acoustic source using a single nondirectional receiver are considered.
