 === Objectives ===
 SODAR (Sonic detection and ranging) is the lesser known cousin of radar, which uses sound instead of radio waves to detect remote targets and estimate its range. Apart from the mode of energy, the principle behind SODAR is highly analogous to radar. Both rely on measuring the time-of-flight to ascertain a target’s range and the Doppler shift to estimate the target’s line-of-sight velocity. This project aims to develop an experimental platform using commercial off-the-shelf acoustic components that can demonstrate the operation of a SODAR in a confined environment. The platform consists of:
-· a transmitter (loudspeaker)
+* a transmitter (loudspeaker)
-· a receiver (microphone)

-· an embedded platform to control and collect the transmitted and received signals
+* an embedded platform to control and collect the transmitted and received signals
-· a Matlab software suite to perform analysis and display the SODAR output
+* a Matlab software suite to perform analysis and display the SODAR output
 The final product must be capable of reliably detecting significant indoor targets and estimating their velocities. The technical problems encountered and solved in this project will be of great interest to the SA defence industry.
 Possible extensions:
-· extend the system to work with multiple receivers (array)
