The sonar array post processor employs an adaptive processing, known as matched beam processing, in the beam domain which takes analog or digital conventional beamforming outputs from a sonar array, multiplies them by a set of adaptive weighting coefficients and produces a new set of beams. The new output beam of highest intensity yields the ideal maximum signal gain and correct target bearing. Continuous target tracking provided by the sonar array post processor in the endfire direction of a horizontal line array minimizes the towing ships maneuvers and for, a bottom mounted surveillance system, a smaller number of arrays are required.
