Sonar for Practising Engineers Summary

Sonar for Practising Engineers by A. D. Waite

The first book exclusively on sonar and sonar technology. Written by an engineer (with over 40 years of experience in the field) for engineers. Taking an engineering approach rather than a physics/math one it provides an understanding of the basic principles of sonar and develops the formulae and rules of thumb for sonar design and performance analysis.
