Signal processing in acoustic imaging

Abstract
A review of signal processing methods which can be used to improve the effectiveness of systems designed for acoustic imaging and bearing estimation is presented. Topics covered include a) signal processing for increased resolution, b) the processing of stochastic acoustic signals, c) image processing, enhancement, and pattern recognition. The discussion of resolution processing includes lateral resolution improvement by both superresolution techniques and aperture synthesis, and improvement of both range and Doppler resolution. The stochastic signal-processing section addresses adaptive processing, as well as methods of imaging in the case of incoherent, noisy signals.
