Study of a Biosonar Based on the Modeling of a Complete Chain of Emission-Propagation-Reception with Validation on Sperm Whales
The sperm whale, Physeter macrocephalus, possesses the largest biosonar in nature. Made ofmultiple oil sacs, the sperm whale sonar is tailored to function from the sea surface downto a depth of 2 kilometers, emitting clicks as loud as 236 dB, and is multipurpose, as itproduces clicks for either echo...
