DIRECTIVITY FACTOR COMPUTER FOR ELECTROACOUSTIC TRANSDUCERS,

Abstract

A simple, low cost, portable computer was designed and constructed that provides a direct readout of the directivity factor of the spherical sound field of a sonar transducer. The instrument can also be permanently attached to the transducer calibration system, in which case it will provide the directivity factor while the regular evaluation is proceeding. The low cost and simplicity of operation of the directivity factor computer make it valuable for modern transducer evaluation. (Author)
