Abstract
One method to generate focused sound is to transmit amplitude modulated ultrasound of high energy in a nonlinear medium, so that sum and difference frequencies develop. Practically wide arrays of many small ultrasonic transducers are used, but the generation of very low frequencies is always weak. This contribution is about the experimental investigation of the {\textquotedbl}generation zone{\textquotedbl} -- that is the distance between the ultrasonic loudspeaker and the listener -- and the decrease of the lower frequency bound of the audible sound beam with distance. The main focus is on the experimental setup, which permits the parametric sound generation with only one ultrasonic transducer and a waveguide. In addition, the new measurement setup enables to show an additional effect: The de-coherence of the primary ultrasound wave which may be caused by saturation of air. This is why the lower frequency bound decreases as well if we approach the ultrasonic transducer.
