About this book

"Digital Sonar Design in Underwater Acoustics Principles and Applications" provides comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of research on sonar design, including the basic theory and techniques of digital signal processing, basic concept of information theory, ocean acoustics, underwater acoustic signal propagation theory, and underwater signal processing theory. This book discusses the general design procedure and approaches to implementation, the design method, system simulation theory and techniques, sonar tests in the laboratory, lake and sea, and practical validation criteria and methods for digital sonar design. It is intended for researchers in the fields of underwater signal processing and sonar design, and also for navy officers and ocean explorers. Qihu Li is a professor at the Institute of Acoustics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Reviews

From the book reviews:

“This book promises a comprehensive approach to the subject, covering all pertinent aspects. … this book will be of particular benefit to those involved in the design and procurement of sonar systems. The exploration of the impact of practical engineering issues on sonar performance also renders it a valuable supplement to the books used by those conducting research in sonar performance modelling and underwater acoustics.” (Adrian Brown, International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration, Vol. 18 (4), 2013)
