Multibeam echosounder
Beamwidth After Frequency Change
Calculate the resultant across-track and along-track beamwidths when operating a sonar at a frequency different from its reference specification.
Sonar Settings
Range: 0.01 – 15
Range: 0.01 – 15
Range: 1 – 3,000
Range: 1 – 3,000 — the frequency at which you want to determine the beamwidth
Results
Across-track Beamwidth
as determined by the projector
—°
Along-track Beamwidth
—°
These results are informational only. Beamwidth scales linearly with wavelength (inversely with frequency) for a fixed aperture. Actual beamwidth may differ due to transducer design, beam steering, and system-specific processing. MosaicHydro accepts no liability for decisions made based on this tool.
