Summary In the submarine community, contact tracking can be conducted via towed array technology. Existing towed array technology requires resolving bearing ambiguity by turning the submarine. This practice could be eliminated if an array of directional microphones could be developed and perfected. The proposed research is to develop an integrated MEMS-based miniature microphone system for directional sensing of sound.
