Abstract
A diagnostic technique for receiving hydroacoustic. antenna arrays operatin g in a shallow sea is presented. The technique reconstructs the hydrophone transfer coefficients, the array profile, and its position relative to the surface and the bottom. A stepped-frequency source and a special receiving element with a known transfer coefficient are used. The technique is illust rated by experimental hydroacoustic, data, and the error in reconstructing each of the parameters is estimated. (C) 2001 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
