Current Research Programs

Dr. Gemba conducts research in experimental ocean acoustics and physics-informed signal processing. He is interested in:

• Acoustic signal and array processing in the presence of environmental noise
• Statistical signal processing and passive detection / localization of low-level acoustic sources
• Using transiting surface ships as sources of opportunity or environmental noise for the purpose of array- and environmental-parameter characterization

Available Thesis Topics

• Detection and localization of submerged sources in deep water environments 
• Environmental noise characterization
• Investigations into the interaction between Oceanography and Acoustics
• Signal processing evaluation of sensor systems
• Acoustic remote sensing of the ocean
