Sound navigation and ranging device

Yogita Ingle 4 years, 7 months ago

Sonar, short for Sound Navigation and Ranging, is a technique that uses propagation of  sound waves  to communicate, navigate and detect the objects on or under the surface of the water.
Working of sonar:

  1. Sonar can send the sound waves towards the depth of the ocean
  2. When these sound waves hit the objects like fish, vegetation or the bottom of the ocean , they are reflected back to the surface in the form of echo.
  3. The sonar device measures how long it takes for the sound wave to travel down, hit an object and then bounce back up.
  4. This information enables the device to to measure the depth of the object
  5. And also it  measures the strength of the returning pulse  to know the  the strength of the objects.  The harder the objects, the stronger the return of the sound wave.
