Differential Phase Estimation with the SeaMARC II Bathymetric Sidescan Sonar System [PDF]
, 1992 A maximum-likelihood estimator is used to extract differential phase measurements from noisy seafloor echoes received at pairs of transducers mounted on either side of the SeaMARC II bathymetricsidescan sonar system. Carrier frequencies for each side are

A Decision Support System to Ease Operator Overload in Multibeam Passive Sonar [PDF]
IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering, 2019 Creating human-informative signal processing systems for the underwater acoustic environment that do not generate operator cognitive saturation and overload is a major challenge. To alleviate cognitive operator overload, we present a visual analytics methodology in which multiple beam-formed sonar returns are mapped to an optimized 2-D visual ...

Uncertainty assessment for a novel optically shallow water radiometric acquisition platform
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract We present a novel motorized platform, a custom‐built jet‐ski designed for acoustic and radiometric measurements in optically shallow coastal waters. This platform integrates in‐water radiometers with single‐beam and multi‐beam acoustic sensors, along with a suite of active and passive instruments (conductivity‐temperature‐depth, fluorescence,
