Abstract: Disclosed is a sediment classification method and system based on bottom echo information of a deep-sea multibeam water column, falling within the technical field of seabed sediment classification. Multidimensional features of seabed multibeam time series are extracted by using multibeam water column data, and multidimensional features of seabed spots are constructed by fusing an angle response curve; double-waveform spectrum comparison of original sample point waveform with seabed measured point waveform is performed, and two groups of corresponding waveforms are matched by using Cosine Similarity to expand original sample points; and the reliability of classification results is improved. In the present disclosure, the transformation from hard to soft classification is realized, and the seabed habitat inversion of complex mixed sediment in a deep sea is further realized.

Abstract: A device and a method for detecting main acoustic indexes of multi-beam sonar pertaining to the field of hydrographic surveying and charting technology. The device includes a rotating device and a lifting gear installed in an anechoic tank. The bottom of the rotating device is equipped with a multi-beam sonar that has its rotating plane perpendicular to the direction of track line and transmits signals along the horizontal direction. A standard hydrophone is equipped at the bottom of the lifting gear, and is connected with a signal collector. The device utilizes the standard hydrophone to receive the pulse signals transmitted by the multi-beam sonar and employs the multi-beam sonar to receive the standard sound source signals, designs the detection process for data collection for analysis and research, thereby achieving the detection of the frequency, source level and beam angle of multi-beam sonar.
