ABSTRACT:
An absorbent passive acoustic antenna, designed to be attached to the hull of a ship, is made in the form of a stack of layers of polyurethane having different types of composition to obtain absorbent and/or reflective characteristics so as to minimize the parasitic signals received by the hydrophones and achieve the maximum absorption of the signals coming from the active sonars external to the vessel on which these antennas are placed.
