Sonar performance modelling (SPM) is concerned with the prediction of
quantitative measures of sonar performance, such as probability of
detection. It is a multi-disciplinary subject, requiring knowledge and
expertise in the disparate fields of underwater acoustics, acoustical
oceanography, sonar signal processing and statistical detection theory.
No books have been published on this subject, however, since the 3rd
edition of Urick.s classic work 25 years ago and so Dr Ainslie.s book
will fill a much-needed gap in the market. Currently, up-to-date
information can only be found, in different forms and often with
conflicting information, in various journals, conference and textbook
publications.

Dr Michael Ainslie is eminently qualified to write this unique book.
He has worked on sonar performance modeling problems since 1983. He has
written many peer reviewed research articles and conference papers
related to sonar performance modeling, making contributions in the fields
of sound propagation and detection theory.
