Abstract

I had the great fortune of meeting Ed Sullivan in 1989 when he was the Manager of Basic Research at the Naval Undersea Warfare Center and, to his dismay, was spending almost all of his time managing rather than researching. Ed hired me as a part-time student associate to analyze and implement passive synthetic aperture sonar, the core of our collaborative efforts for over twenty years and the technical focus of this presentation. Conversations with Ed, whether technical or not, were intellectually stimulating, fun, or mostly a combination of the two. Importantly though and through Ed’s confident and unique lens, he provided me – and many of you – with insights into highly relevant areas such as matched field and model based signal processing, music, history, and physics!I had the great fortune of meeting Ed Sullivan in 1989 when he was the Manager of Basic Research at the Naval Undersea Warfare Center and, to his dismay, was spending almost all of his time managing rather than researching.
