This book highlights the advantages of the vector-phase method in
underwater acoustic measurements and presents results of theoretical and
experimental studies of the deep open ocean and shallow sea based on
vector-phase representations. Based on the physical phenomena discovered
and compensation of counter streams of energy and vortices of the
acoustic intensity vector, processes of transmitting acoustic energy of
a tonal signal in the real ocean are described. The book also discusses
the development of advanced detection tools based on vector-phase sonar.
This book provides useful content for professionals and researchers
working in various fields of applied underwater acoustics.
