Abstract
A recent pioneering study of Steven Schock provided high-quality imaging of buried objects using the buried object sensing sonar (BOSS) system in a towed or AUV-mounted configuration [Schock, Proc. IEEE Oceans, 2005]. This paper numerically investigates the performance of compressive sensing (CS) and standard backprojection methods for imaging multiple buried objects using a sonar system similar to the BOSS. Synthetic data are generated using a 3-D pseudo-spectral model for different sediment types and geometries including synthetic aperture sonar. As compared to the standard backprojection methods, the CS-based reflection tomography provided sharper images of buried objects using smaller data sets. Based on the CS performance, several improvements on the BOSS system and data collection schemes are also presented. [Work supported by ONR.]
