Simulation of side-scan sonar [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1986 Acoustic remote sensing is becoming widespread in oceanographic measurement programs. Acoustic systems for such measurements include seafloor subbottom profilers, inverted echo sounders, tomography systems, and side-scan sonars. Numerical simulation of such systems can provide valuable information for system design and for analysis of data from an ...
