ON THE EVALUATION OF THE CREST FACTOR OF BIONIC SIGNALS USED IN HYDROACOUSTIC COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS

In this article, the authors evaluated the crest factor of bionic signals used in hydroacoustic communication systems, using the example of the study of signals based on the use of recordings of sounds of various whale species. The calculations and literature analysis show that the sound recordings of the following whale species have an acceptable crest factor value (p ≤ 4): Blue whale, Alaska humpback whale, Atlantic blue whale and Northeast Pacific blue whale. Recordings of the sounds of these types of whales should be used in the appropriate hydroacoustic communication systems. In contrast, recordings of the sounds of such whale species as Atlantic fin whale, Atlantic minke whale, South Pacific blue whale, and Western Pacific blue whale have an increased crest factor value (p > 4) and without adaptation, it is impractical to use them in appropriate hydroacousticcommunication systems. It is established that bionic signals used in hydroacoustic communication systems, based on the example of the study of signals based on the use of recordings of sounds of various species of whales, can have both an acceptable value of the crest factor or an increased one. It is advisable to pay attention of the de-velopers and manufacturers of the corresponding hydroacoustic communication systems to this conclusion during designing, testing and implementation of such systems.
