Abstract :
Multi-aspect or multi-look processing is known to improve the image quality and target detection capability of high resolution synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) imaging systems. We present in this paper a brief description on the topic and typical results obtained from sea data collected while fielding the High Frequency/Low Frequency Synthetic Aperture Sonar (HF/LFSAS)
