Abstract
A system and method for displaying sonar data are disclosed. In a presently preferred embodiment, each of N channels from a beamformer are separately processed utilizing a pair of passive broadband detection processors such as SCOT processors and SPED processors. The output of each SCOT processor and each SPED processor are scaled, aligned, and then compared. The maximum scaled and aligned output from each pair of processors is selected for input to a bearing time history display.
