I have the following scenario.

In a marine environment, an object X moves below the surface of water from point A to point B. As it moves it displaces water around it which creates ripples (or increases detectable pressure levels) in the surroundings. We have sensors Si installed underwater at distance di with known geographic positions. I want to know the following.

1. How do we measure the intensity I of the ripples (generated by the object) at any sensor Si located di meters away from the object?

2. How do we measure the time required for the propagation of the ripple from its origin to sensor Si such that sensor Si can detect intensity I.

Thanks
