Broadband processing based sensors are becoming more and more appealing because they are compatible with low-cost, small-size systems. The technology trend for the next century both in underwater and air acoustics is shifting to the use of broadband rather than narrow band signals. Even if broadband processing is associated with increased computing requirements, we have reached the point today where computing power is no longer the limitation. Commercial applications for this technology are broad since these algorithms could be applied to any sonar bistatic and monostatic or acoustic array that must work in a cluttered environment (depth profiler, fish finders, sub-layers characterization in shallow water for the petroleum industry, and seismic sensors).
