With the required increased audio pressure of the parametric ultrasonic transducer array and the difficulty to theoretically analyse the complex ultrasonic structure in audio beam application, an computationally efficient model is desired to describe the characteristic of the parametric ultrasonic transducer array for the system design and optimization. By applying the symmetry boundary conditions at the mid-plane in the thickness direction, a finite element model based on the haft thickness simplification is presented to analyze the parametric circular transducer which is designed by gluing the poly Vinylidene fluoride film （PVDF）. The validity of the proposed model is confn＇med by a comparison of finite element analysis results with the theoretical value and experimental data, which show that they are making a good agreement with each other.
参量扬声器是近年来出现的一种新的声源。根据宽带参量阵理论的"Berktay远场解",对参量扬声器的一种信号处理方法——DSB(Double Side Band)法的互调失真问题进行了理论与实验研究。研究发现,DSB法除了存在幅值失真、谐波失真外,还存在互调失真,且实测互调失真较理论预测的复杂。在此基础上指出,"Berktay远场解"只能在一定程度上作为参量扬声器信号处理的理论依据,寻找更为精确的自解调理论模型是解决参量扬声器信号处理问题的根本途径。
