Abstract

Ground wave is an acoustic wave propagating at a sediment sound speed in the case that sediment sound speed is constant with depth, which is explained by modal dispersion effects. In this paper, the ground wave in time domain is simulated using the ray-based approach, which is possible because the modal dispersion can be explained by the guiding of energy caused by reflection and refraction in the waveguide geometry. For a Pekeris waveguide, the ground wave can be interpreted as a sequence of head waves, called a head wave sequence [Choi and Dahl, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 119, 3660-3668 (2006)]. The ground wave is simulated by convolution of the source signal with a channel impulse response of the head wave sequence, which is compared with simulated signals obtained via a Fourier synthesis of a complex parabolic equation (PE) field.

지면파는 해저면 음속이 깊이에 따라 일정할 경우 해저면 음속으로 진행하는 음파로 일반적으로 모드분산으로부터 설명된다. 모드분산은 도파관의 기하학적 구조에 의한 음파의 반사 및 굴절에 의해 발생되므로 본 논문에서는 지면파를 음선이론에 기초하여 모의하였다. 지면파는 일련의 선두파들의 조합으로써 해석될 수 있으므로 [Choi와 Dahl, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 119, 3660-3668 (2006)], 음선 접근법을 이용하여 시간영역에서 여러 경로로 전파되는 선두파들의 채널 임펄스 응답과 선두파 신호의 컨볼루션을 취하여 지면파를 모의한다. 모의된 지면파는 광대역 시간영역 포물선 방정식 기법을 이용하여 모의된 지면파와 비교, 검증된다.
