Acoustic Scattering for Buried Objects at High Frequencies - A Ray Theoretic Approach

Abstract

The goals of the proposed research were as follows: (1) Develop a stochastic model that can be used to determine the presence of a buried object in ocean sediments, and (2) Develop a method for obtaining the bottom properties from analysis of normal incidence data as in the case of chirp sonar.
