Signal detection optimization for underwater acoustics

<p>The Ocean Environment was explored to determine the effects of temperature, absorption and leakage on acoustic propagation. Having modeled the acoustic region, a cylindrical sonar is evaluated to determine its array gain as a function of frequency. The Detection Threshold is analyzed and it...
