Abstract
A pulse-echo system using an electrostatic transducer and steel reflector was operated over the frequency range 24-192 Kcps in the sea and in the laboratory. Excess attenuations from 0.15 to 1.1 db/M due to absorption and scattering by inhomogeneities were made over the full frequency range with a maximum error of less than 0.05 db/meter. Backscattering at sea was detected in the frequency range 24-60 Kcps with an average scattering cross-section per unit volume of 4.00 cm /m^ at a depth of 10 feet. Scattering was not detected abbve 60 Kcps. Variation of sound velocity with frequency was measured from 24-192 Kcps. The accuracy of these values was 0.03 percent for frequencies over 40 Kcps.

    Spacecraft Vibration Using Pulse-Width Pulse-Frequency Modulated Input Shaper 

    Song, G.; N. Buck; Agrawal, B.N. (1997);
    Minimizing vibrations of a exible spacecraft actuated by on-off thrusters is a challenging task. This paper presents the rst study of pulse-width pulse-frequency modulated thruster control using command input shaping. ...

    Linearization of FM-CW radar sweep by feedback 

    Marshall, Steven Alfred (Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1974-12);
    A frequency-modulated radar is a radar in which a continuous-wave transmission is frequency modulated in a known manner in order to obtain range information. When the frequency modulation is linear with time, the ...

    LASER FREQUENCY STABILIZATION FOR ATOM INTERFEROMETRY APPLICATIONS 

    Gilliam, George N. (Monterey, CA; Naval Postgraduate School, 2021-06);
    Many atomic sensors depend on using a laser with a precisely defined frequency. Unfortunately, most lasers suffer from perturbations in their effective cavity length (which determines the operating frequency of the laser) ...
