Extract Transmission Characteristic

This operator extracts a variable for a nominated statistic and component of the active transducer transmission characteristic data. The transmission impedance of a transducer may vary from the manufacturer's measured value due to physical or environmental changes at or near the transducer.

Extract Transmission Characteristic

Select a Statistic from the list:

  • Impedance Median
  • Calculates the median of the selected Component data.
  • Impedance Interquartile range
  • Calculates the interquartile range of the selected Component data.
  • Impedance Maximum
  • Determines the maximum impedance for the selected Component data.

Select the Component for the Statistic calculation:

  • Transducer
  • Statistics for the whole transducer are an aggregate of values from all pings within all sectors.
  • Sector number
  • Statistics for the transducer sector are an aggregate of values from all pings within the specified sector.

Notes:

  • The Extract transmission characteristic statistics are different from the statistics displayed on the Transducer Diagnostics section of Simrad EK80 acquisition software.
  • Extract transmission statistic equations.
