Analysis and Modeling of Target Echo and Reverberation: FY15 Annual Report for ONR

Abstract

From an operational perspective clutter is one of the most important problems facing active sonar in shallow water. The long-term objective of this work is, through quantitative model-data comparisons, to better understand target echo, clutter and reverberation in shallow water environments, and to develop techniques and models for multistatic sonar, rapid environmental assessment and environmentally adaptive sonar.
