Abstract

[Problème] Obtenir des caractéristiques de fréquence de pression acoustique satisfaisantes. [Solution] Le générateur acoustique de l'invention comporte un excitateur, un corps vibrant plat et un substrat imprimé. L'excitateur vibre lorsqu'un signal électrique lui est appliqué. Le corps vibrant est fixé à l'excitateur, et la vibration de l'excitateur fait vibrer le corps vibrant en même temps que l'excitateur. Le substrat imprimé est relié à l'excitateur et permet d'appliquer un signal électrique à l'excitateur.
