GBs still preferable as are readily extended to complex media Conclusion: Choose b such that R/b < bk June 19, 2014 UWA Symposium 18 11

21 Transmission of GB Through Interfaces At discontinuity interfaces, a GB is reected and transmitted along ray trajectories satisfying Snell's law. The collimation of the reected and transmitted beams is found by phase matching on discontinuity interface S(y) to parabolic order. Source of error: Phase matching error due to higher orders; aggravated for wide beam imprint on S, i.e, for: 1 Wide beams 2 Low grazing angles 3 Near critical angle Σi S(y) Σr Σt June 19, 2014 UWA Symposium 21 14

28 z n 2 Linear Waveguide 0 c R Wavespeed: c(z) = c 0 1 2αz, α > 0 Canonical case, characteristic of mixed layer conditions or winter prole. Analytical exact normal modes solutions: Airy functions. overlapping caustics at low takeo angles cause breakdown of ray models; accordingly, GBs lose collimation. June 19, 2014 UWA Symposium 28 21

29 Choice of Parameters We must choose: 1 Initial collimation length of beams: b 0. 2 division of the lattice. It can be shown that the collimation length of a beam after m hop cycles goes as: b m b0/m 2. Thus for a given range, the collimation length deteriorates faster for lower takeo angles. We describe these using the PE method. Dividing angle: θ H c R ΘH 300 z Asaf Harel, Ehud Heyman GBSBased = blue, Hybrid Propagation PE = green Method June 19, 2014 UWA Symposium / 30

30 Choice of Initial Collimation Length For a given beam, we nd the optimal choice of initial collimation length b 0 = half the hop distance θ. We set b0 as the optimal length for the beam of lowest angle = θ H June 19, 2014 UWA Symposium 30 23

31 Optimal Angular Division PE is accurate for small takeo angles, but produces phase error for larger takeo angles. By equating the terms for the GB and PE errors as a function of takeo angle, the optimal division angle θ H is found. June 19, 2014 UWA Symposium 31 24

40 Schizoidal Beams c R z Beams grazing a wavespeed maximum cannot maintain Gaussian structure, either ripping into two parts or losing collimation quickly. Congruent with leaky modes, at edge of the mixed layer, resulting in non-localized eld. As a canonical case, we take a bi-linear wavespeed prole, presented above. June 19, 2014 UWA Symposium 40 26

41 Suggested Solution Using our hybrid approach, the problem can be circumvented. We replace beams that turn near the maximum point by PE solutions. Note: We lack a reference solution for this problem, and by focusing on low takeo angle beams, we will consider the PE solution as accurate. June 19, 2014 UWA Symposium 41 27

49 Summary 1 We have introduced a general framework for hybrid solution of propagation problems based on the GBS. 2 The method allows exploitation of relative strengths of dierent model solutions, avoiding problematic features in the media and fundamental weaknesses of the models. 3 We demonstrated how this scheme may be enacted to tackle specic problems of underwater propagation. 4 This framework can be readily extended to aperture radiation or edge diraction problems.
