      LePage, Kevin D.; Goldhahn, Ryan A.; Alves, João; Strode, Christopher; Braca, Paolo; Ferri, Gabriele; Munafò, Andrea; Oddone, Manlio; Sildam, Jüri; Baralli, Francesco; Biagini, Stefano; Canepa, Gaetano; Colombo, Marco; Grandi, Vittorio; Grenon, Gabriel; Mazzi, Marco; Micheli, Michele; Parisi, Gerardo; Saia, Paolo; Vermeij, Arjan; Zappa, Giovanni (CMRE, 2019/06)
      CMRE has been evaluating the potential of autonomous networked ASW using underwater vehicles through a program of sonar signal processing, underwater communications, navigation and robotic behavior developments and at-sea ...
    • Cooperative robotic networks for underwater surveillance: an overview 

      Ferri, Gabriele; Munafò, Andrea; Tesei, Alessandra; Braca, Paolo; Meyer, Florian; Pelekanakis, Konstantinos; Petroccia, Roberto; Alves, João; Strode, Christopher; LePage, Kevin D. (CMRE, 2019/06)
      Underwater surveillance has traditionally been carried out by means of surface and undersea manned vessels equipped with advanced sensor systems. This approach is often costly and manpower intensive. Marine robotics is an ...
    • Multistatic sonar: a road to a maritime network enabled capability 

      Been, Robert; Jespers, Stephane; Coraluppi, Stefano; Carthel, Craig; Strode, Christopher; Vermeij, Arjan (NURC, 2007/10)
      NATO's operational requirements emphasize interoperability of platforms participating in coalition task forces. Intelligently fusing data of multiple sensor systems and the development of adapted tactics are necessary steps ...
    • On-board real-time assessment of acoustic environmental parameters relevant to the estimation of sonar performance for autonomous underwater vehicles 

      LePage, Kevin D.; Oddone, Manlio; Micheli, Michele; Strode, Christopher; Tesei, Alessandra (CMRE, 2019/05)
      CMRE is evaluating the use of autonomous robots for the detection and tracking of underwater targets. Robotic detection and localization comes with many challenges, not the least of which is the requirement to maximize the ...
    • The effectiveness of a system-of-systems for countering asymmetric maritime threats in ports and harbours 

      Strode, Christopher; Cecchi, Daniele; Yip, Handson (NURC, 2008/09)
      A small boat loaded with explosives has been used by terrorists to attack military and civilian maritime surface vessels at berth or at anchor. For example, suicide bombers attacked the USS Cole using a small boat while ...
