The traditional techniques of wireless communication developed in air are adopted in underwater acoustic communication systems, such as adaptive equalizers and phase-lock loop etc... However, the performance of underwater acoustic communication would only be achieved with intolerable computational complexities. Passive-Phase Conjugation (abbreviated as PPC) is a new equalization technique proposed and developed with acoustic propagation physics to overcome the difficulties mentioned above. They are different from the traditional techniques with respect to signal processing. This project studies the performance of the PPC equalizer based on prior knowledge of acoustic field, and the objective is to quantify, predict and explore the robustness and performance of the PPC equalizer with a vertical line array. Analytical derivation will be presented. It shows that the performance of PPC equalizer strongly relates to acoustic mode composition. Experimental data will be collected and simulation results are used to examine and manifest the theory. The result will show that the composition of acoustic modes directly affects the performance of quadrature-demodulation output and the equalized output of passive-phase conjugation. The relationship between the acoustic mode field and the performance of PPC equalizer is identified, which provides a guideline for optimizing combination of least receivers if prior knowledge of acoustic field is possible.被動式相位共軛法聲波模態場陣列處理多通道結合與等化器複雜度Passive Phase ConjugationAcoustic Mode FieldArray ProcessingMulti-channel combiningand Complexity of equalization水下通訊之時域反轉前置等化技術之研究
