Abstract

This study addresses the issue of vortex current fields near the islands and reefs in China’s straits, which pose significant challenges to engineering construction and navigation safety in the surrounding waters. To monitor these vortex fields, the study proposes an innovative method utilizing acoustic signals. The study utilizes the numerical simulation and phase feature extraction of acoustic signals in the vortex current field, based on ray acoustic theory and time-reversal mirror technology. The study successfully monitored the central position of the vortex core and characteristic radius of the vortex current field near Barley Straw Reef using HYCOM data for the first time. Furthermore, the performance of the method was analyzed under different acoustic phase perturbations and signal-to-noise ratios. The numerical simulation results demonstrate that the acoustic method is effective in monitoring near-shore vortex fields, and the time-reversal mirror technique is useful in extracting phase difference information from acoustic signals generated by vortex currents.
