Abstract
Accurate sonar measurements depend on knowledge about how the transducer array converts acoustic waves into an electrical signal. A transducer's beam pattern describes its response with respect to the angle of arrival of a signal, and must be characterized before reliable data can be measured. Sonar Works is developing a system for testing multi channel sonar transducers in partnership with the Simon Fraser University Underwater Research Lab. Our goal is to produce an accurate beam pattern measurement system (BPMS) that is useable with minimal technical training. It is our intention to have a working proof-of-concept in operation by December 2003.
