Reverberation is the phenomenon when the sound source transmits and causes scattering in active sonar system. This kind of effects often produced in the waveguide, resulting signal interference and signal mask issues. Reverberation can affect the signal to noise ratio, thus understanding the characteristic of environmental reverberation is important. In recent years, there were many studies for the Sizihwan Bay Marine Test Field (MTF), including environmental surveys, Harbor defense and acoustic inversion, however the issue related to reverberation has not been explored. The purpose of this study is to research reverberation in the MTF and focusing on volume reverberation and surface reverberation. In the past, the experiment of Underwater Intruder Detection with active sonar system demonstrated the reverberation in Kaohsiung second harbor. Therefore, this research is about using the experimental data to questions about volume reverberation. Results show, volume reverberation in the port area caused by ship, boundaries, current, impurities in water and biota. On the other hand surface reverberation, this study focusing on numerical simulation, match the results of experimental. Numerical results of RMS height, correlation length and frequency affect the reverberation intensity, but it does not identify the phenomenon of reverberation in experimental results, mainly is the intensity of the source is not enough. This study combined with simulation and experiment, and overviewed the reverberation properties in MTF. Also provided suggestions for following studies.
