Theoretics of remote acoustic monitoring of the level and density of fluid contacting media at the interface

Resumo

We present a method for monitoring the physical parameters of a medium, based on processing of an acoustic signal reflected from the studied medium. The method makes it possible to rapidly and simultaneously measure the level and density of the reflecting medium owing to acoustic sounding with pulses of different shape. We have obtained the analytic dependences relating the controlled parameters to the phase and amplitude spectra components of the reflected acoustic signal.
