Abstract
The BiStaR bistatic reverberation model has been developed at SACLANTCEN to model general reverberation scenarios in range-dependent waveguides. Features of the model include coherent propagation to and from the scattering patch, a coherent scattering patch model which includes anisotropy in the scatterer correlation length scales, and explicit inclusion of system parameters such as bandwidth and source and receiver directivity. The model is built upon the C-SNAP coupled mode model developed at SACLANTCEN by Ferla and Porter. In this talk the theoretical features of the model are presented and the characteristics of coherent and range-dependent bistatic reverberation predicted with the model are discussed. The model is also exercised to help interpret reverberation phenomena observed during the Geoclutter/Boundary Characterization Cruise conducted off the coast of New Jersey during the spring of 2001, including reverberation from beyond the shelf break and scattering from features buried beneath the sediment. a)Previously at the SACLANT Undersea Research Centre, La Spezia, Italy.
