METHOD FOR DETERMINING PARAMETERS OF MANEUVERING OF THE SOURCE OF PROBING SIGNALS Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC G01S15/02 

FIELD: acoustic waves.

SUBSTANCE: invention is used in hydroacoustic systems under development. The result is achieved by the proposed method for determining the parameters of manoeuvring the source of probing signals, containing the sequential reception of probing signals from a moving source, the sequential measurement of time points t_i of receiving n probing signals, where n is at least 3, determination of time intervals T_k and T_{k+ 1} between the moments of arrival of each of the two consecutive probing signals, where T_k =t_i+1-t_i, T_k+1=t_i+2-t_i+1. According to the invention, before measuring the time points of receiving probing signals and the intervals between them, the speed of movement of the receiver is reduced to a minimum value, the direction G⁰ to the source of PS is measured, the direction U⁰ of the receiver is chosen in such a way that the condition G⁰-U⁰=90° or G⁰-U⁰⁼270° is ensured, the ratio between T_k and T_k+1 and the heading angle of movement of the source of probing signals are determined.

EFFECT: determination of parameters for manoeuvring of a source of probing signals (PS).
