A series of time-reversal experiments was performed in shallow water including a range-dependent slope environment. Time-reversal arrays implemented with center frequencies of 445 and 3500 Hz achieved sharp focal regions up to ranges of 30 and 13 km, respectively in 110-130-m shallow water. In this paper, resolution expressions are derived using an image method to describe the focal sizes achieved with time-reversal arrays in various ocean environments. Analysis for the measured data indicates that the focal size approaches the diffraction limit of an array for given waveguide conditions, i.e., waveguide geometry and attenuation. The measured focal size has implications for the maximum achievable resolution of linear matched-field processing which is a computational implementation of the time-reversal process. © 2001 Acoustical Society of America.
