Description
This Technical Specification establishes:
* the general concept of the limits of applicability of acoustic measurements in water resulting from finite-amplitude acoustic effects;
* a method to ensure that measurements are made under quasi-linear conditions in order to minimise finite-amplitude effects, which may be applied under the following conditions:
- to acoustic fields in the frequency range 0,5 MHz to 15 MHz;
- to acoustic fields generated by plane sources and focusing sources of amplitude gain up to 12;
- at all depths for which the maximum acoustic pressure in the plane perpendicular to the acoustic axis lies on the axis;
- to both circular and rectangular source geometries;
- to both continuous-wave and pulsed fields;
* the definition of an acoustic quantity appropriate for establishing quasi-linear conditions;
* a threshold value for the acoustic quantity as an upper limit for quasi-linear conditions;
* a method for the estimation of attenuated acoustic quantities under conditions of nonlinear propagation in water.
