Abstract: Imaging System requires High Power Transmitter with reduced weight. We carry out the design of Acoustic Transmitter. Since miniaturization in the field of sensors and transducer is rapid, a MEMS acoustic transmitter is designed. The transmitter along with the structural analysis and modeling has done by Intellisuite for the tonpilz type design, where PZT Sol gel is used as active material. The simulation studies are done by varying the head mass, tail mass and length of the active material. This transmitter is suitable for the underwater target detection, object classification and localization, sub bottom profiling and ocean topography applications. The proof of concept of Tonpilz type acoustic transmitter is achieved in this work.
