Array Type	Velocity in 3-6 bins and 4 beams plus surface 5th beam improves array geometry, allowing shorter waves in deeper water
Janus	25°; lower variance and large aperture improves directional acuity
Number of Sensors	13-25; more sensros = more robust
Max Array Aperture	~0.84 x depth; large aperture improves directional functionality
Smallest Lag in Array	~0.42 x depth; 5th beam provides short lags in the array for resolving higher frequencies
Smallest Measureable Wavelength	~0.84 x depth
Smalles Measureable Wave Period	D=20m, P>3.3s D=50m, P>5.2s D=80m, P>6.5s
