Detection of buried objects in the seabed: a simple model study
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1998/10)The problem of detecting an object buried in the seabed is studied by means of a simple model. In this model, the object is a rigid sphere buried in a bottom modelled as a fluid half space. The scattered field is determined ... -
Detection of narrow-band low-level signals: simulated performance of high-resolution eigenstructure methods versus conventional beamforming
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1988/08)In this report the detection of narrow-band low-level signals by passive sonar is addressed, -
Detection of objects on a non Rayleigh background
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1995/12)Sector scanning sonar systems image the sea-bottom to detect objects that can be distinguished from the background structure of the seabottom. In current systems images are displayed and discarded as new image data become ... -
Detection rate statistics in synthetic aperture sonar images
(NURC, 2009/12)Synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) has proved to be successful for mine hunting andis now robust for generating high-resolution images over wide swath. The subsequent stepin the processing is detection, discriminating between ... -
Detection, tracking and fusion of multiple HFSW radars for ship traffic surveillance: experimental performance assessment
(CMRE, 2014/05)Low-power HF surface-wave radars fit well the role of long-range early-warning tools in maritime situational awareness applications, by virtue of their over-the-horizon coverage capability and continuoustime mode of ... -
Determination of velocity profile and sea bed characteristics from high frequency pulse propagation in a shallow water Mediterranean environment
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)Time-domain features of shallow water Mediterranean and Yellow Sea data are simulated for frequency band widths of 0.8 kHz with a centralfrequency of 3.2 kHz. Contour plots of pulse arrivals in time and depth are analyzed ... -
Deterministic methods of sound field computation
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1975/10)Models for acoustic propagation in the ocean environment have matured to a level where they are used routinely to estimate deterministic phenomena and, most recently, have been applied to the investigation of stochastic ... -
Deterministic propagation modelling: Part 1: Fundamental principles *Part 2: Numerical results
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1981/06)The physics of sound propagation in the ocean is briefly reviewed. The wave equation is presented and a set of solutions under a variety of approximations is discussed. The consistency among these solutions is illustrated. -
Development of a SACLANTCEN MCM sonar performance model
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1996/11)The report describes the Mine Countermeasures Sonar Performance -
Development of a software-defined and cognitive communications architecture at CMRE
(2019/05)This paper presents an overview of the functionalities of the Cognitive Communications Architecture (CCA) that is currently under development at the NATO Science and Technology Organisation (STO) Centre for Maritime Research ... -
Development of barotropic models for the GIN Sea
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1991/03)Barotropic ocean models are developed for deep oceans, with arbitrary topography and basin geometry, on a sphere. A special adaptation is made for the Greenland-Iceland-Norwegian (GIN) Seas with closed lateral boundaries. ... -
Development of military ARGUS computers and MOD bus for close-coupled signal processing applications
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1979/12)The next generation of Naval sonar systems will make extensive use of flexible programable modules to implement signal-processing algorithms. A number of UK Defence Establishments are engaged in a series of coordinated ... -
Different approaches to economic cruising speeds on a CODOG frigate with due regard to radiated noise
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1985/01)All navies, in recent years, have been much more concerned in economic cruising speeds of ships. Frigate type naval ships are usually characterized by two shafts, by multiple propulsion engines per shaft, and by different ... -
Digital acoustical processing at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution

Digital analysis working group: proceedings of a conference held at SACLANTCEN on 25-27 May 1971
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1972/05) -
Digital map and linked data (DMap) implementation at SACLANTCEN as an aid to sea-going research
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1995/08)DMaps (data maps), consisting of a geographical informatiorl system -
Digital signal processing of high resolution within-pulse sector scanning sonars
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1979/12)The characteristics of three scanning sonars, presently in use at the Admiralty Marine Technology Establishment, and operating at frequencies of 300kHz, 150kHz and 75kHz are described. The performance of a system for ... -
Direct observation of the angle of intromission in marine sediment
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2001/06)High porosity marine sediments like silty clays have the curious property that the speed of sound through its bulk medium is lower than that of the interstitial pore fluid. When a high porosity sediment is at the water ... -
Directional measurements of low-frequency acoustic backscattering from the seafloor
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1986/06)Long-range, low-frequency directional measurements of acoustic backscattering from the seafloor were made in the Tyrrhenian Sea using explosi ve sound sources. The signals were received by a horizontal towed array of ...
