Recently, the interest for underwater dispersive channels appears since dispersivity phenomena act at very low frequencies which are well suited for long range underwater communication. In such a case, a main interest is to perform estimation of the impulse response of such channel for processing purposes. In this paper we introduce a time–frequency analysis tool that aims to extract the time–frequency components of the channel impulse response. This technique is based on the adaptive time–frequency filtering whose parameters are defined by a local chirp matching procedure. Tests provided for realistic scenarios illustrate the potential and the benefits of the proposed approach. %G English %Z SHOM/CMO CA/2003/06/CMO %2 https://hal.science/hal-00349533/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-00349533/file/Icassp_TFP.pdf %L hal-00349533 %U https://hal.science/hal-00349533 %~ ENSTA-BRETAGNE %~ UGA %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-GRENOBLE1 %~ UNIV-PMF_GRENOBLE %~ UNIV-GRENOBLE3 %~ INPG %~ OSUG %~ GIPSA %~ GIPSA-DIS %~ GIPSA-SIGMAPHY %~ ENSTA-BRETAGNE-STIC %~ ENSIETA-E3I2 %~ UGA-TEST-BIS %~ UGA-TEST-TER %~ UGA-TEST-QUATER
