Resonating Shell: A Spherical-Omnidirectional Ultrasound Transducer for Underwater Sensor Networks

This paper presents the design and fabrication process of a spherical-omnidirectional ultrasound transducer for underwater sensor network applications. The transducer is based on the vibration of two hemispheres with a thickness of 1 mm and an outer diameter of 10 mm, which are actuated by two piezo...
