sonar signal processing

Sonar signal processing involves using sound waves to detect and analyze objects underwater, similar to how bats use echolocation. A sonar system sends out sound pulses which travel through water, bouncing off objects like submarines or the ocean floor. The system then listens for the echoes that return. By analyzing the time it takes for these echoes to return and their characteristics, professionals can determine the distance, size, and shape of the objects. This technology is crucial for navigation, marine research, and underwater exploration, helping us understand and interact with underwater environments effectively.
