    Area of Science:

    • Materials Science
    • Acoustics
    • Signal Processing

    Background:

    • Guided waves (GWs) offer alternative communication channels but face challenges like dispersion and multipath interference.
    • Traditional wired or radio frequency (RF) methods have limitations in harsh or inaccessible environments.
    • Frequency steerable acoustic transducers (FSATs) can mitigate GW propagation issues through inherent directional capabilities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • Introduce a novel directional transducer based on GWs for structural health monitoring (SHM) and acoustic data communication.
    • Demonstrate the transducer's ability to overcome GW propagation challenges using frequency-dependent spatial filtering.
    • Validate the transducer's performance through simulations and experimental testing.

    Main Methods:

    • Designed a transducer capable of actuating/sensing the A0 Lamb wave in three orientations using distinct frequency channels (50–450 kHz).
    • Employed finite element (FE) simulations and experimental testing with a scanning laser Doppler vibrometer (SLDV) for performance verification.
    • Integrated frequency-steering with ON-OFF keying (OOK) modulation for hardware-based frequency directivity and tested multiple-in-multiple-out (MIMO) capabilities.

    Main Results:

    • The transducer demonstrated effective frequency-steering capabilities, correlating signal frequency with propagation direction.
    • FE simulations and SLDV experiments confirmed the transducer's performance and directional control.
    • MIMO tests on an aluminum plate showed excellent agreement between experimental results and FE simulations.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel directional transducer effectively addresses GW propagation challenges for SHM and acoustic communication.
    • The frequency-steering mechanism provides a robust method for directional control in elastic wave-based systems.
    • This technology shows promise for advanced communication and monitoring in complex environments, akin to 5G research.
