Processing Continuous Active Sonar Transmissions to Achieve an Arbitrarily Fast Update Rate With Full Instantaneous Bandwidth

Stefan M. Murphy;Lisa M. Zurk;Matthew E. W. Coffin

IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering
Year: 2021 | Volume: 46, Issue: 3 | Journal Article |
Cited by: Papers (4)
A processing technique for continuous active sonar (CAS) that uses linear frequency modulation (LFM) waveforms is presented. LFM CAS employs wideband long-duration LFMs with 100% transmit duty cycle. The received signals are typically processed in sub-bands by forming a sequence of matched-filter replicas that correspond to consecutive segments of the full waveform; this increases the update rate ...Show More

Vertical line arrays (VLAs) deployed below the critical depth in deep ocean environments have been shown to have lower levels of distant shipping noise [1]. In addition, acoustic energy from nearby targets travels via the Reliable Acoustic Path (RAP), and thus has an enhanced signal level. The combination of these two factors produces a favorable detection scenario. However, nearby surface ship in...Show More
