Low-Complexity Adaptive Sonar Imaging
(2016)
We have studied the low-complexity adaptive (LCA) beamformer in active sonar imaging. LCA can be viewed as either a simplification of the minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamformer, or as an adaptive extension ...
Wideband Interferometry in Synthetic Aperture Sonar
(2013)
Synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) interferometry can provide very high resolution images and topographic maps of the seafloor over large swaths. Processing of interferometric data to retrieve reliable depth estimates of the ...
Comparison of synthetic aperture sonar images and optical images of UXOs from the Skagerrak chemical munitions dumpsite
(2019-11-28)
After World War II chemical munitions were loaded onto large ships and sunk
in the Skagerrak Strait in the Norwegian trench, in deep waters between Norway and Denmark. In collaboration with the Norwegian Coastal Administration, ...
Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Sonar in Pipeline Inspection
(2010-10-14)
Accurate and reliable inspection of subsea pipelinestraditionally requires the use of multiple sensors, which againhave different requirements for range and geometry. This makespipeline inspection a time consuming and ...
Data-Driven Autocalibration for Swath Sonars
(2020-12-20)
Sidelobes in swath sonar water column imagery can obscure targets of interest and create erroneous bottom detections. Differences between ideal and actual element responses limit the achievable sidelobe level for practical ...
