Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0251599A2] An acoustic transducer l comprises a piezoelectric material 4 having a linear shape and which is arranged in the form of a flat spiral within a body 2 of encapsulant material. The piezoelectric material may be a polyvinylidine fluoride coaxial cable and this thus can allow the construction of a high performance planar hydrophone at relatively low cost.
