Research: Array Design with thin-film sensors for SONAR systems


The design of arrays for SONAR systems is constrained by the size of conventional hydrophones. Complex geometries, in particular, make the design of sensor arrays more difficult. Piezoelectric thin-film sensors are an attractive alternative to conventional hydrophones, as they are smaller and therefore offer expanded possibilities for the development and construction of arrays. The aim is to design a SONAR system including a cylindrical sensor array out of the piezoelectric thin-film sensors. The newly developed and constructed array enables 3D beamforming, which is to be implemented afterwards.
