Key Features

Automatic loading of hydrophone sensitivity and effective aperture as a function of frequency. The data is loaded once by the user with an ancillary program and is automatic thereafter. Once the program determines the effective center frequency of the probe under test, the appropriate hydrophone sensitivity is interpolated from the hydrophone data file. The effective hydrophone aperture is used to account for spatial averaging, using the method described by Preston, Bacon et al.
Automatic beam alignment procedures, which involve operator adjustment to attain alignment to any degree desired (as a fraction of a wavelength).
Automatic oscilloscope gain adjustment to maximize waveform SNR.
Automatic setting of optimal spatial step size for maximum speed with exceptional accuracy.
Automatic setting of spatial scanning ranges based on probe characteristics; full accounting for non-linear beam characteristics.
Automatic beam scanning for peak location (selectable peak search algorithms based on probe data.
Optimized waveform settling routines, which compensate for any hydrophone vibration after positioning movements and waveform averaging routines.
