Selection of the correct side scan sonar system for a specific application is difficult for the typical ocean operator. The source of this difficulty results from the diversity of side scan sonar designs and a general lack of knowledge on the capabilities and restrictions of available side scan sonar systems.

Segmentation and Classification of Side-Scan Sonar Data
2012Side scan sonar is an acoustic sensor which uses sound waves to generate side scan sonar images. Most adaptive behavior of AUVs would require that the vehicle be able sense the environment, detect objects of interest, localize and then change its current behavior.

Side-scan sonar image matching
IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering, 1998This paper presents a method for the matching of underwater images acquired with acoustic sensors. As a final objective, the system aims at matching data from two-dimensional scenes. The proposed approach carries out a hypothetical reasoning based on objects, represented by shadows and echoes in the sonar images, and their available features.

The side scan sonar represents the only high-resolution seismic tool that provides coverage to both sides of a survey vessel’s track. It is a most practical and valuable tool for obtaining an acoustic picture of the sea floor. Operational side scan sonar systems were developed at the British National Institute of Oceanography following World War II, as

Digitising of side-scan sonar signals
Ultrasonics, 1976Abstract A criterion for judging the adequacy of the digitisation rate of side-scanning sonar records has been established by inspection of the two-dimensional Fourier power spectrum of areas of record. The lowest digitising rate necessary to retain the information content in the signal is an important parameter in the efficient and economical ...

Side scan sonar acoustic variability
OCEANS '88. 'A Partnership of Marine Interests'. Proceedings, 2003The authors report the results of research on the inherent variability of side-scan sonar imagery to determine the magnitude and nature of image intensity fluctuations. Two experiments are presented in which a Klein 100-kHz system is operated under controlled conditions that remove all but purely instrumental and acoustic causes of image variability ...

Side scan sonar in oyster management
Oceans '02 MTS/IEEE, 2003Oyster harvest from Mississippi reefs provide jobs for numerous fishermen and contribute substantially to the economy. Proper management of these reefs is vital for continued harvest. Enhancement management techniques (i.e. cultch planting and/or cultivation) should helps to ensure even greater future production.

A New Generation Side Scan Sonar
1993While it is now possible, with multibeam echosounders, to obtain true bathymetric images of the sea floor up to ranges of 10 km 1,2, the best way of imaging the underwater relief with high resolution at lower ranges remains the side scan sonar 3. This 30 years old technique is however limited in several aspects that will be discussed later.

Development of a side scan sonar module for the underwater simulator
2017 14th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots and Ambient Intelligence (URAI), 2017In this paper, we implemented the Side Scan Sonar (SSS) module for the UnderWater Simulator (UWSim) [1], specifically focusing on sonar image simulation. To obtain the simulated SSS images, we adopted the Lambertian diffusion model [2]. The beam profile was modeled using a pair of sine wave functions.
