Underwater acoustics: analysis, design and performance of sonar
Hodges, Richard P.
Offering complete and comprehensive coverage of the sonar spectrum, Underwater Acoustics:Analysis, Design and Performance of Sonar walks the line between the highly theoretical and mathematical books and the more populist, non-mathematical books that characterize the existing literature in the field. The author includes key experimental and theoretical results, pointing the reader towards further detail with extensive references. Chapters include the sonar equation, radiated, self and ambient noise, active sonar sources, transmission loss,reverberation, transducers, active target strength, statistical detection theory, false alarms, contacts and targets, variability and uncertainty, modelling detections and tactical decision aids, cumulative probability of detection, tracking target motion analysis and localization, and design and evaluation ofsonars.
