Noise measurements during MAPEX 2000
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2002/03)During MAPEX2000 some simultaneous ambient noise measurements with an HLA and satellite SAR images were collected. The aim was to predict shipping and wind noise from the satellite radar and to compare results with acoustic ... -
Numerical simulation of the effects of bathymetry on underwater sound propagation using three-dimensional parabolic models
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1998/03)Two different three-dimensional parabolic equation (PE) methods are -

Oceanographic analysis of NAPOLI'85, an experiment in the Tyrrhenian Sea
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1990/03)In 1985, an acoustic/oceanographic experiment (NAPOLI '85) was carried out in the Tyrrhenian Sea to investigate acoustic propagation -
Oceanographic data from the southern Tyrrhenian Sea: August to October 1984: Part 1 - Floats and moored instruments: Part 2 - Hydrography
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1988/02)A SACLANTCEN observational programme in the Southern Tyrrhenian Sea comprised a sequence of three cruises during the period August to November 1984. The primary purpose was to investigate the late summer water-mass variability ... -
On the spatial variability of the impulse response of an underwater acoustic channel
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2000/05)In many applications like adaptive equalization, beam-forming, matched field processing or focalization the performance is limited due to changes in the impulse response caused by variations in source-receiver range or in ... -
Parameter estimation using multi-frequency range-dependent acoustic data in shallow water
