1-3-2 piezoelectric composite has been widely used in the field of underwater acoustic transducer. In this paper, Series-parallel model is used to make the theoretical derivation of the resonant frequency of 1-3-2 piezoelectric composite. By using numerical calculation the law of the frequency varying with the cutting depth is gained. It provides theoretical basis for the design of the 1-3-2 piezoelectric composite with multi-mode.

This paper is concerned with the design of a new wideband 1-3-2 piezoelectric composite with multi-mode. The equivalent parameters of 1-3-2 piezoelectric composite with multi-mode are derived from series-parallel theory and uniform field theory. By using numerical calculation, the law of bandwidth varying with the cutting depth is obtained and compared with experiments. The computations show agreement with the experimental results. The results prove that the new wideband 1-3-2 piezoelectric composite with multi-mode can expand bandwidth efficiently, which can be expanded to 28.728 kHz that is 5 times the bandwidth of traditional 1-3-2 piezoelectric composite.

Time reversal (TR) can achieve temporal and spatial focusing by exploiting spatial diversity in complex underwater environments with significant multipath. This property makes TR useful for underwater acoustic (UWA) communications. Conventional TR is realized by performing equal gain combining (EGC) on the single element TR output signals of each element of the vertical receive array (VRA). However, in the actual environment, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the received noise power of each element are different, which leads to the reduction of the focusing gain. This paper proposes a time reversal maximum ratio combining (TR-MRC) method to process the received signals of the VRA, so that a higher output SNR can be obtained. The theoretical derivation of the TR-MRC weight coefficients indicates that the weight coefficients are only related to the input noise power of each element, and are not affected by the multipath structure. The correctness of the derivation is demonstrated with the experimental data of the long-range UWA communications conducted in the South China Sea. In addition, the experimental results illustrate that compared to the conventional TR, TR-MRC can provide better performance in terms of output SNR and bit error rate (BER) in UWA communications.

A wide-band cylindrical transducer was developed by using the wide band of the composite material and the matched matching layer for multimode coupling. Firstly, the structure size of the transducer’s sensitive component was designed by using ANSYS simulation software. Secondly, the piezoelectric composite ring-shaped sensitive component was fabricated by the piezoelectric composite curved-surface forming process, and the matching layer was coated on the periphery of the ring-shaped piezoelectric composite material. Finally, it was encapsulated and the electrodes were drawn out to make a high-frequency broadband horizontal omnidirectional water acoustic transducer prototype. After testing, the working frequency range of the transducer was 230–380 kHz, and the maximum transmission voltage response was 168 dB in the water.
