ABSTRACT:
The bearing accuracy and long-range sonar target detection capability of a multi-cardioid directional receiving hydrophone array is improved by electronically producing mirror images of the cardioid directional patterns of each directional hydrophone in the array whereby the number of receiving channels are effectively doubled by this invention which in turn results in higher signal-to-noise ratios especially when receiving distant relatively weaker sonar signals. As a result, the accuracy of measurement of target range and bearing by the improved directional hydrophone array will be significantly increased.
