Multistatic Active Acoustics

Abstract

The long-term objective of this research is to develop a theoretical foundation for the design of new multi-static sonar concepts for littoral seabed imaging and mine counter measures (MCM) operations. Multistatic configurations have been made possible by the development with ONR support of new inexpensive autonomous underwater vehicle technology.
