Abstract

The general research statement of our proposal emphasized optimization of sonars and acoustic remote sensing systems by coupling state of the art, physics based, signal and array processing and the education of students in ocean acoustics. This has been accomplished i) by leading the Navy S&T program to implement the Acoustic Testbed now under contract for deployment as well as the DARPA Robust Passive Sonar program, ii) conducting the ONR Geoclutter Experiment which clearly identified the significant contribution of submerged objects in bottom reverberation and iii) the mentoring of students and postdoctoral associates.
