Towed array geometry estimation during ship's moneuvering

Towed arrays of hydrophones are commonly used as receiver apparatus for determining the directionality of the underwater acoustic field. It is well known that a line array beam response has a inherent left-right ambiguity and that any deformation of the array will produce a distortion on the estimat...

Resumo:Towed arrays of hydrophones are commonly used as receiver apparatus for determining the directionality of the underwater acoustic field. It is well known that a line array beam response has a inherent left-right ambiguity and that any deformation of the array will produce a distortion on the estimated acoustic field directionality.
