16 16 Orthogonal Set 6 Orthogonal Signals Seawater has a limited bandwidth Interested in set of mutually orthogonal signals for comms, positioning etc

17 17 Orthogonal set II 6 Orthogonal Signals Output of Matched Filter bank Should get a score of one for signal you want Ideally a score of zero for other signals In practice score is c 0.3 but this is Works fine in simulation but will it work in practice? Very confident it will work under lab conditions – but over long distances in sea water? Does Dispersion agree with theory?
