METHOD DETECTING INTERNAL WAVES OF HYDRODYNAMIC UNDERWATER DISTURBANCES Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: information and measurement technology, oceanology, aviation and those fields of technology where visualization of examined phenomena is used. SUBSTANCE: surface of sea water is irradiated in turn by ultraviolet and visual range radiations, returned signals are received, fluorescent component of received signal is extracted, spectrum of received fluorescent signal is converted to color spectrum and color field is formed on its basis with the use of display that reflects spatial field of real reflected signals that is used to evaluate presence of underwater disturbances. EFFECT: increased probability of detection of internal waves and other dynamic inhomogeneities in the thick of water. 2 dwg
