Underwater Ambient Noise Measurement and Recording System

Abstract

In this study, a shallow water broadband acoustic receiver system is designed for collecting underwater acoustic data. The system is designed as a linear sensor array including 8 omni directional hydrophones. In order to collect the test data and conduct experiments a test system with one hydrophone is realized and a recording program interface is written prior to the implementation of the main system. Experiments are made in the aquarium, the test pool and the sea.
