Abstract :
Underwater ambient noise consist of many signals generated by both natural and man made sources. These signals are spread over a wide range of frequencies. Thus, analysis and classification of the various components of ambient noise is an essential step in the process of de-noising underwater acoustic signals. This place a major role in the improvement of signal to noise ratio, which is an important characteristic of marine instruments. This paper investigates the effect noise spectrum over a different wind speed and the signal coherence with sensor separation are examined for a number of line array processor in the pacific ocean region. To clarify the effect of sensor separation on the noise field, the relatively simple case of a semi infinite ocean with Isovelocity profile is considered.
