Matched Field Processing for Active and Passive Sonar

Abstract

The complexity and dynamics of shallow water limit the performance of adaptive array processors. Matched field processors are especially sensitive since they require accurate environmental models to construct signal replica vectors. The long term goals are (1) to determine processors performance limits and (2) to develop robust algorithms for adaptive array processing in shallow water for both active and passive sonar systems.
