In response to the drawbacks of low efficiency, cumbersome calculation, and easy-to-fall local optimal solutions in existing shallow water acoustic parameters inversion research, this paper proposes a shallow water acoustic parameters inversion method based on a feedback (BP) neural network model. Firstly, the theoretically predicted values of the shallow water sound pressure field are obtained through the fast field method (FFM). Secondly, a relationship model between the predicted sound pressure field and the inversion of ground sound parameter values is established based on the BP neural network model. Finally, the measured sound pressure field data are brought into the neural network model to obtain the inversion results. The application results of the method indicate that, compared to the classical simulated annealing (SA) algorithm, the BP neural network model converts the data-matching process of the optimization algorithm into the construction of a relationship model between the input data and the desired parameters, avoiding repeated matching and optimization processes. Therefore, it can directly, accurately, and efficiently output the inversion results. Under the premise of setting the same accuracy, the iteration number of the BP neural network model is reduced to 2% of the SA algorithm, cutting the calculation time to 30% of the SA algorithm. It has broad application prospects in shallow sea acoustic parameters inversion algorithms.
