An Analysis of an Auto-Alert Sonobuoy Detection Model

Abstract

This thesis presents a method for estimating some parameter values that are involved in the design of a passive broadband auto-alert sonobuoy. The importance of establishing a false alarm rate that is compatible with tactical requirements is stressed. A FORTRAN program is listed for estimating an auto- alert sonobuoy lateral range curve.
