Abstract

It has been reported that underwater target models, spheres and cylinders can be detected and classified in background acoustic noise. In this paper, the author presents his recent finding that underwater target is detectable in acoustic background noise in open waters. Using a resonance detection technique, G-Transform, the noise background of a number of AUTEC sample data files with mammal clicks were analyzed. From the noise backgrounds in these data files, a number of possible target signatures were observed. It suggests that real underwater targets may be detected and classified passively in background noise.
