TOPAS PS18
Parametric sub-bottom profiler
TOPAS PS18 is designed for sub-bottom profiling with very high spatial resolution in water depths from less than 20 metres to full ocean depth. The +80% relative bandwidth, low frequency signal is generated in the water column by non-linear interaction between two high frequency signals (centred symmetrically around 18 kHz). Similarly, a sum frequency signal is also generated. However, only the low frequency signal is used for sub-bottom profiling.
