Zusammenfassung:A continuous transmission FM sonar avoids target ambiguities while utilizing the entire transmitted bandwidth for echo analysis. The sonar is characterized by digital generation of direct and quadrature versions of the transmitted frequency sweep, and balanced modulators responsive thereto to effect complex demodulation of the returned signals prior to analysis, as by a fast fourier transform frequency analyzer for target detection.
