Study of efficient broadband beamforming based on extended towed array measurement

Abstract

In this paper, extended towed array measurement and broadband beamforming in frequency domain are combined together to form a new efficient broadband beamforming based on extended towed array measurement (ETAM-FCBF). The angular resolution of this method is higher than the conventional beamforming, and the detection ability of the weak target is more excellent. Moreover, this method is fast enough for real-time processing.
