Data communication and data fusion architecture for RAPID RESPONSE 96-98
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1999/06)Executive Summary: The concept of Rapid Environmental Assessment (REA) has emerged in recent years as one of the most interesting research topics in Military Oceanography (MILOC): REA in a military environment is defined ... -
Data driven vessel trajectory forecasting using stochastic generative models
(2019/05)In this work, we propose a data driven trajectory forecasting algorithm that utilizes both recorded historical and streaming trajectory observations. The algorithm performs Bayesian inference on a directed graph the walks ... -
Data-driven detection and context-based classification of maritime anomalies
(CMRE, 2019/06)Discovering anomalies at sea is one of the critical tasks of Maritime Situational Awareness (MSA) activities and an important enabler for maritime security operations. This paper proposes a data-driven approach to anomaly ... -
Decay of large underwater bubble oscillations
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1999/02)Pressure - time series from breathing mode oscillation of large (centimeter scale or larger) underwater bubbles reveal much higher decay rates than can be explained using viscous, thermal, or radiative mechanisms which ... -
Decision tree-based adaptive modulation for underwater acoustic communications
(CMRE, 2017/11)Underwater acoustic channels are characterised by non-stationary fading statistics and consequently, a modulation scheme optimally designed for a specific fading model will underperform when the channel statistics ... -
Deconvolution by homomorphic and Wiener filtering
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1988/09)This study is concerned with deconvolution methods applied to underwater propagation in shallow -
Deduction fo synthetic temperature profiles from SST observations in the Iceland-Faeroe frontal region
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1996/01)Subsurface temperature and sound speed profiles are generated from satellite SST observations and -
Deep water mass circulation in the Alboran Basin: Measurements - August to November'83: ALBORAN III
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1988/02)The circulation of the deep water mass in the western Alboran Sea is studied. Interaction between the -
Deep water mass circulation in the Alboran basin: measurements - January to April '82 ALBORAN II
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1987/09)Alboran Sea circulation between 220 m and 1100 m depth is studied. Interaction between three water types, Atlantic water, Levantine water, and western Mediterranean Deep water cause a complicated flow pattern. Atlantic ... -
Deep-sea circulation in the Alboran sea
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1985/04)Alboran Sea circulation between 220 and 1100 m depth is studied. Interaction between three types of water masses in this area causes a complicated flow pattern. Atlantic water flowing as a jet through the Strait of Gibraltar ... -
Delay-Doppler resolution performance of large time-bandwidth product linear FM signals in a multi- path ocean environment
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1989/04)Active sonar systems that transmit large time-bandwidth (TW)-product linear frequency modulated (LFM) waveforms and receive echoes from targets of unknow~r~an ge and speed can suffer considerable correlation losses that ... -
Demystifying deep convolutional neural networks for sonar image classification
(CMRE, 2019/06)Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are developed to perform underwater target classification in synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) imagery. The deep networks are trained using a huge database of sonar data collected at ... -
Deployable underwater surveillance systems(DUSS): localization and fusion of multistatic contacts: evaluation of feasibility using experimental data
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1998/12)Active sonar deployable underwater surveillance systems (DUSS) are based on a distributed network -
Deployable underwater surveillance systems: analysis of experimental results: part III
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1999/04)Deployable Underwater Surveillance Systems (DUSS) are a new active sonar concept based on a distributed network of small multistatic transmitter / receiver nodes. This study analyzes data acquired during the period 29 June ... -
Deployment of a persistent underwater acoustic sensor network: the CommsNet17 experience
(CMRE, 2019/05)This paper presents the experimental activities performed by the NATO STO Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation (CMRE) during the CommsNet17 trial where a persistent Underwater Acoustic Sensor Network (UASN) was ... -
Depth dependence of directionality of ambient noise in the North Pacific: experimental data and equipment design
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1982/06)Ambient ocean noise studies have been part of the research program of the Marine Physical Lab (MPL) for many years. In recent years this work has included several studies of the depth dependence of vertical directionality ... -

Detecting anomalous deviations from standard maritime routes using the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process
(CMRE, 2019/05)A novel anomaly detection procedure based on the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) mean-reverting stochastic process is presented. The considered anomaly is a vessel that deviates from a planned route, changing its nominal velocity ... -
Detection models and target information processing
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1982/06)The passive sonar equation leads in a natural manner to sensor detection performance contours. Useful information can be extracted from observed fractional holding time on non-cooperative targets by use of these contours. ... -
