COURSE OVERVIEW

This intensive short Sonar Signal Processing Training course provides an overview of sonar signal processing. Processing techniques applicable to bottom-mounted, hull-mounted, towed, and sonobuoy systems will be discussed. Spectrum analysis, detection, classification, and tracking algorithms for passive and active systems will be examined and related to design factors. Advanced techniques such as high-resolution array processing and matched field array processing, advanced signal processing techniques, and sonar automation will be covered.

COURSE OBJECTIVES

Upon completing this Sonar Signal Processing Training course, learners will be able to meet these objectives:

  • Fundamental algorithms for signal processing.
  • Techniques for beam forming.
  • Trade-offs among active waveform designs.
  • Ocean medium effects.
  • Shallow water effects and issues
  • Optimal and adaptive processing
CUSTOMIZE IT
  • We can adapt this Sonar Signal Processing Training course to your group’s background and work requirements at little to no added cost.
  • If you are familiar with some aspects of this Sonar Signal Processing course, we can omit or shorten their discussion.
  • We can adjust the emphasis placed on the various topics or build the Sonar Signal Processing course around the mix of technologies of interest to you (including technologies other than those included in this outline).
  • If your background is nontechnical, we can exclude the more technical topics, include the topics that may be of special interest to you (e.g., as a manager or policy-maker), and present the Sonar Signal Processing course in a manner understandable to lay audiences.
