This thesis investigates the use of combined Wavelet decomposition and Wiener filtering for the removal of noise from underwater acoustic signals. Several Wavelet/Wiener based denoising techniques are presented and their performances compared. Performances of the denoising algorithms are compared to those of Wiener filter and wavelet thresholding implementation and demonstrate that Wavelet/Wiener based methods are also a viable tool for the denoising of acoustic data under more restrictive conditions. ...
