摘要
This paper describes the implementation of a bathymetric synthetic aperture sonar and presents preliminary results from sea trials of the sonar. The sonar is designed for high resolution seafloor imaging in a shallow water environment. This is achieved through coherent summation of successive echo signals to synthesise an aperture many times longer than the towfish. Provided the motion of the towfish is accurately estimated and compensated, the application of aperture synthesis can result in a range independent resolution over the operating swath.
