FM Sonar Simulation Techniques

Abstract

The report outlines technical areas needed for the development of a Continuous Transmission Frequency Modulated Sonar Operator Trainer. The report discusses the contents of a possible standardized active sonar equation to be used in the mathematical modeling of the transmitted and received signal. There is also outlined a hybrid computer technique for producing artificial signals to stimulate the display consoles with dynamic sonar echo returns of mine, non-mine and subterranean targets and features.
