Offboard Active Surveillance and Communications

Abstract

This report describes the research performed on behalf of the Office of Naval Research (grant # N00014-01-D-0043 Delivery Order 0006) on the following: The enhanced operation of offboard active surveillance and communications systems has been demonstrated through the use of phase conjugation (time reversal) techniques to enhance echo-to-reverberation-ratio in active sonars and mitigate multipath in acoustic data communications.
