제주도 연안에 분포되어 있는 정치망에 어획되는 어류의 음향 유집 효과에 대한 기초자료를 제공할 목적으로, 정치망의 주요 어획 대상 어종인 잿방어의 식이음, 유영음, 어선의 기관소음, 정현파 순음 등을 녹음시켜, 제작한 수중확성기로잿방어를 사육하는 가두리 양식장에 방성하였을 때, 각 음에 대한 어류을 행동 반응을 조사.분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 제작된 수중확성기의 수중 실험에서는 측정 주파수의 모든 주파수에서 입력파형과 출력파형이 잘 일치하여 주파수 200.600Hz의 수중음을 방성할 수 있었다. 2. 순음 주파수 300Hz및 400Hz를 방성하였을 때 보다 훨씬 민감한 반을을 보였다. 4. 잿방어 어군의 식이음, 유영음 스펙트럼은 주간과 야간에 관계없이 비슷한 음압분포를 나타내었고, 주파수 200~600Hz부근에서 낮은 음압 분포를 나타내었다.

A Held experiment was carried out to confirm the effect of underwater sound on the luring of fish school of rudder fish in a set net at the coast of Cheju Island. The effects of the acoustic emission on the luring of fish school were observed at a cage around a set net fishing ground using a manufactured underwater speaker. Underwater sounds that were emitted for the luring of fish school were the pure sounds of which frequency were 300Hz and 400Hz, engine noise and swimming sound. The results of the observation are as follows : 1. The input and output wave forms of a manufactured underwater speaker in water tank were similar to those in measurement frequencies. The result of the observation indicated that it could be used for the purpose of the sound emission in measurement frequencies. 2. The effect of the emitted pure sound of 300Hz, 400Hz was remarkable for the luring of fish school in 2 minutes after the sound emission. The reaction of fish school was more sensitive to the pure sound of 400Hz than 300Hz. 3. The effect of the emitted engine noise was more remarkable than that of the pure sound for 3 minute continuously. On the feeding sound, fish formed a shoal and swimmed, but didn't gather around the underwater speaker. 4. The feeding and swimming sound spectra on rudder Hsh showed similar sound pressure distribution each other, they appeared low sound pressure in frequencies of 200-600Hz.
