The reflector of an acoustic echo ranging system is matched so as to make up for the influence of the temperature at the bottom of the reflector, on the measurement of the back-reflected signal. The acoustic signal receiver being stationary the transmission frequency is controlled by a temperature responsive electronic circuit so that the receiver is always located at the same pressure antinode. Alternatively, the transmission frequency being fixed, the position of the receiver is controlled by a temperature responsive mechanical gear causing the position of the receiver to coincide with the same pressure antinode. |
