The range resolution of echo sounders can be improved by enhancing the transducer bandwidth. We designed a bandpass matching network for expanding the bandwidth of a transducer by scaling in both impedance and frequency after transforming a lowpass network into a bandpass configuration for a third-order Bessel filter. We measured the effect of the Bessel matching network for a 50 kHz sandwich type transducer on the transmitting voltage response (TVR), receiving sensitivity (SRT) and figure of merit (FOM), using a chirp echo sounder system. Both the simulation and experimental results indicated that the transducer with a bandpass matching network was capable of producing a symmetrical acoustic output over a wider bandwidth (8.25 kHz) than was the transducer without a matching network (3.75 kHz). By implementing the Bessel matching network, we achieved a 120% bandwidth enhancement.

본 논문은 두 편으로 연결된 논문의 둘째편으로 광대역 배열변환기의 설계방법과 설계된 변환기의 음향특성을 제시한다. 아울러 유한요소법과 하이브리드형 무한요소법의 결합기법에 의한 설계된 변환기의 음향특성 결과가 등가회로 해석 기법에 의한 결과보다 양호함을 확인하였다. 따라서 제시된 변환기 해석기법이 광대역 배열 변환기의 설계 및 음향특성 해석에 응용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Higher directivity acoustic transducer using the self-demodulation effect was fabricated. The structure of transducer was designed such as dimension and support type of the piezoelectric element, the vibrating metal plate, and the housing case. Based on the design, the transducer was fabricated and measured its acoustic characteristics. Also, AM modulated driving circuit was designed for using the self-demodulation effect. The piezoelectric sounder with 200kHz resonant frequency and 20kHz bandwidth was designed by considering the sharp directivity and the sound pressure. The design and fabrication method worked in this study can be utilized in development of various speakers with higher directivity and broader bandwidth.

The performance of an acoustic transducer is determined by the effects of many design variables. and mostly the influences of these design variables are not linearly independent of each other To achieve the optimal performance of an acoustic transducer, we must consider the cross-coupled effects of the design variables. In this study with the FEM. we analyzed the variation of the resonance frequency and sound pressure of a flextensional transducer in relation to Its design variables. Through statistical multiple regression analysis of the results, we derived functional forms of the resonance frequency and sound pressure in terms of the design variables, and with which we determined the optimal structure of the transducer by means of a constrained optimization technique, SQP-PD. The proposed method can reflect all the cross-coupled effects of multiple design variables, and can be utilized to the design of general acoustic transducers.

The Tonpiltz transducer is one of the essential elements in sonar application. The characteristics of transducer depend on the piezoelectric ceramics and mechanical elements such as head mass, tail mass, pre-stress rod and so on. One of the important characteristics is stable electric resistance for high power transmitting operation. This paper presents characteristics variation of the underwater acoustic transducer with material variation of electric decoupler.

파워를 이용하는 음향 변환자를 설계할 경우 전기적 신호의 에너지가 가급적 많이 음향 에너지로 바뀌어서 전달되도록 하여야 한다. 이를 위해서는 방사임피던스를 포함한 초음파 변환자의 임피던스와 파워 앰프의 출력 임피던스 간에 정합이 필요하다. 특히 구동부의 출력 임피던스 값이 매우 작은 경우 센서의 역률 개선이 꼭 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 광대역 수중 음향 발신기의 역률 개선을 위해서 ABCD 전송 행렬을 사용한 정합 기법을 제안한다.
