Description of the Related Art In a conventional underwater acoustic signal detection system, signal detection is performed by using only level information of direction and level information for each frequency component of underwater sound. That is, the following is performed in order to detect a signal having a level higher than the noise component. First, the average value Mp of the frequency components of the underwater sound is calculated by Equation 1. It is assumed that there are N cell frequency components and the frequency components are arranged in ascending order.

In the conventional method, since the threshold is applied by using the levels of the frequency components in the vicinity, there is a drawback in that the detection is affected by other frequency components. For example, when the signal itself has a frequency spread of about W in Expression 1, the threshold becomes relatively high, which makes it difficult to detect the signal.
