Figure 2. Illustration of the various acoustic beams from the HASCP unit. Beams 0 and Beam 1 are
rectangular transducers with narrow beam width (0.5 degrees) and operate at 1152 kHz. Beam 2 and Beam 3
operate at 576 kHz and 2304 kHz respectively. Beam 4 operates at 1152 kHz and is used for measuring the
depth of the instrument from the surface.
