Limits on Coherent Processing Due to Internal Waves

Abstract

Estimates are derived on the effects produced by internal waves in the ocean on coherent spatial and temporal processing of acoustic signals based on the empirical Garret-Munk GM75 internal wave spectrum. Results are presented for horizontal and surface limited rays, for point and array receivers, and for stationary and moving sources.
