Underwater plasma acoustic source (UPAS) with high voltage pulse arc discharge produced pressure wave has the advantage of adjustable pulse length, high source level output, and no pollution to the environment. In recent years, this kind of source has been gradually used in domain as long range target detection, geo-acoustic profile measurement, and frogman threats deposal etc. While for a fairly long time, we’re lack of research on the company product of sound—light. In this paper, we measured the opto-spectrum of UPAS by experiment, and found its spectrum is of continuous spectrum and its dominant energy is around 500nm, if we raise the discharge voltage, reduce the gap distance of the tips, the spectrum amplitude and half peak amplitude width will increase, and if we change steel tips with copper tips, the light energy distribution and amplitude of the spectrum will change.

AbstractThe Cocktail Party Effect refers to the ability of the human sense of hearing to extract a specific target sound source from a mixture of background noises in complex acoustic scenarios. The ease with which normal hearing people perform this challenging task is in stark contrast to the difficulties that hearing-impaired subjects face in these situations. To help patients with hearing aids and implants, scientists are trying to imitate this ability of human hearing, with modest success so far. To support the scientific community in its efforts, we provide the Bern Cocktail Party (BCP) dataset consisting of 55938 Cocktail Party scenarios recorded from 20 people and a head and torso simulator wearing cochlear implant audio processors. The data were collected in an acoustic chamber with 16 synchronized microphones placed at purposeful positions on the participants’ heads. In addition to the multi-channel audio source and image recordings, the spatial coordinates of the microphone positions were digitized for each participant. Python scripts were provided to facilitate data processing.
