Description and Status of Search and Detection Model for the SQS-23 (TRAM) Sonar.

Abstract

This interim report describes the search and detection performance model in its current state of development. It also describes the computer program which implements the model and some of the tentative conclusions resulting from running the program in its current state. The conceptual model includes many pertinent characteristics of the sonar hardware, its operator, and the acoustic environment in which they operate. Additional characteristics will be included in an extended model and implementing computer program to provide a sound basis for the Sonar Operator Performance Standards Guide.
