Ocean, Platform, and Signal Processing Effects on Synthetic Aperture Sonar Performance
2007
Rolt, Kenneth D.
Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS), the underwater sound application of the aperture synthesis method borrowed from Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), is investigated by means of ocean medium effects, platform motion effects, and signal processing effects. Synthetic aperture methods, both in radar and in sonar, allow large synthesized apertures, or equivalently synthesized arrays, to be formed from the combined use of signal processing and a small, real aperture transducer (e.g. a radar or a sonar transducer). Large synthetic apertures give rise to relatively narrow synthesized beams, which in turn allow very high resolution focused images to be formed from radar or sonar data. The target in the synthetic aperture sonar case could be the ocean bottom, and the objective could be, for example, ocean-bottom mapping or searching for a sunken vessel....
