  1. Fessenden oscillator

    Cleanup date July 2010 A Fessenden oscillator is an electro acoustic transducer invented by Reginald Fessenden starting in 1912 in association with the Submarine Signaling Company of Boston. It was the first successful Sonar History sonar device . It has been supplanted by piezoelectric devices. It was an early kind of hydrophone , using electromagnetic forces similar in operating principle to a voice coil Speaker driver loudspeaker , it was adapted to work in water instead of air. It was capable of creating underwater sounds and of picking up their echo. The creation of this device was motivated by a strongly felt need to protect ships from collisions with obstacles and other ships. Oscillator The oscillator in the name referred to the fact that the device vibrated and moved water in response to a driving Alternating current AC current. It was not an Electronic oscillator oscillator in the electronic sense that it generated a repetitive signal, in fact electronic oscillators did not yet exist when this device was created. Since the design of the device does not depend on a resonant response, it should not be considered a harmonic oscillator either.
