Abstract
This manuscript presents a method for reproducing sound fields actively by using a vibrating submerged structure as the field reproduction source, with the target sound field to be reproduced defined in the frequency domain using the acoustic brightness approach. To balance the predetermination of a mono- or multi-zone target sound pressure field and the control effort required, singular value decomposition of the structural-acoustic system matrix is proposed. The dependency of the radiation efficiency into the target zone on the singular modes representing source and pressure modes is investigated using a wavenumber-domain approach. Furthermore, a feedforward control principle is adopted for adaptive sound-field reproduction with mode matching from the least squares perspective. Finally, an experiment is reported that involve synthesizing a tonal target underwater acoustic signature of a model of a fast attack craft (scale 1:8) at a measurement facility at Lake Plön in Germany. The results show that with the structural-acoustic brightness approach structural modes with radiation coupling into the target zone are excited and related pressure modes exhibit individual focus in the direction of hydrophones in use. Finally, a predetermined narrowband sound pressure field is actively reproduced at the hydrophone positions using inertial actuators and accelerometers on the ship model's hull.
