Transducer design

a

cb

de

Multi-element receive array measuring phase differences. In the GeoSwath

Plus case the primary array consists of two transducers mounted to a “V”

plate. Each transducer contains multiple ceramic staves:

Bottom stave is transmitter, multiple receive elements.

Uses phase differences to measure angle.

Result: time series of angles (and amplitudes)

The Technology Benefits

Easy to deploy on small vessels of opportunity

= reduced mobilisation costs

Very wide swath width in shallow waters

= increased productivity, = easier survey planning

= survey top of all shoals in survey area

Compact, robust transducers and electronics

= able to be deployed on smaller vessels

Co-registered side-scan with bathymetry

= ‘2 surveys in one pass’, more applications

Robust transducers with no active components

= low cost of purchase and maintenance
