AbstractShallow water acoustics provide a means for monitoring and surveillance of near-shore environments. This paper describes the current and future capabilities of the low- to high-frequency Hawaii Experimental Acoustics Range (HEAR) that was designed to facilitate a wide range of different shallow water acoustics experiments and allow researchers from various institutions to test various array components and configurations. HEAR is a portable facility that consists of multiple hydrophones (12‐16) cabled independently to a common central node. The design allows for variable array configurations and deployments in three modes: experimental (off boats and piers), autonomous, and cabled. An application of HEAR is illustrated by the results from a deployment at Makai Research Pier, Oahu, Hawaii. In this deployment, HEAR was configured as a long-baseline range of two volumetric subarrays to study passive acoustic tracking capabilities in a shallow water environment.

This paper presents a novel technique for calculation of attenuation of acoustic signals in the materials in underwater channel. A laboratory procedure and algorithms have been developed for finding attenuation. In many applications like sonar signal processing acoustic signal attenuation in the dome or in an enclosure are required to be known. Finding the actual attenuation while signal passes through the materials is very useful in calculating the precise power transmitted through the enclosures. The attenuation in materials mainly dependent on type of material, signal frequency and launch angle of the signal. A proper procedure has been presented in this paper
