Adaptive autonomous underwater vehicles for littoral surveillance: the GLINT10 field trial results
(NURC, 2012/05)Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) have gained more interest in recent years for military as well as civilian applications. One potential application of AUVs is for the purpose of undersea surveillance. As research into ... -
Adaptive filter of seabed clutter onboard the AUVs of an active multistatic sonar network
(CMRE, 2019/05)This work aims at reducing the false alarm rate of a multistatic active sonar working in coastal, shallow waters. The sonar system is implemented through a heterogeneous manned-unmanned network including autonomous underwater ... -
Ambiguity reduction of underwater targets in framework of topic modeling
(CMRE, 2019/06)An unsupervised track classification approach based on appropriate discriminative and aggregative features derived from beamformed and normalized matched-filtered data is applied to sonar multistatic tracking and extended ... -
Autonomous networked anti-submarine warfare research and development at CMRE
(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 ... -
An autonomous underwater vehicle data-driven control strategy for target tracking
(CMRE, 2019/05)This paper presents a data-driven approach to control the movement of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) operating as receivers of a multistatic sonar surveillance network. The algorithm adopts a nonmyopic receding ... -
Benchmark analysis of NURC multistatic tracking capability
(NURC, 2006/08)This paper provides a brief description and performance results for the multistatic sonar trackers developed at NURC. Our analysis is based on common data distributed as part of the Multistatic Tracking Working Group ... -
Benchmark evaluation of multistatic trackers
(NURC, 2006/08)This paper provides an overview of the Special Session on Multistatic Sonar and Radar Tracking at FUSION 2006. This includes background on the Multistatic Tracking Working Group, a brief description of the datasets and ... -
Channel sensitive processor: sensitivity and optimization study
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997/10)The detection performance of the Channel-Sensitive Processor (CSP) has been tested in dense multipath conditions. It was demonstrated that, for a known propagation channel, the CSP outperforms the conventional matched ... -
Collaborative multistatic ASW using AUVs: demonstrating necessary technologies
(NURC, 2009/12)Many research laboratories and several nations are showing an interest in the 'underwater networked battlespace' in which a combination of stationary and mobile underwater platforms communicate wholly or partially by the ... -
Contact-level multistatic sonar data simulator for tracker performance assessment
(NURC, 2006/08)This paper provides an overview of a multistatic sonar contact-data simulation approach and a dataset generated specifically for tracker algorithm evaluation by the Multistatic Tracking Working Group (MSTWG). A brief ... -
Continuous active sonars for littoral undersea surveillance
(CMRE, 2019/05)Recent advances in transducer and computing technology have pushed the concept of continuous active sonar (CAS) or high duty cycle sonar as an area of interest for application to antisubmarine warfare. Unlike conventional ... -
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 ... -
Distributed information fusion in multistatic sensor networks for underwater surveillance
(CMRE, 2019/06)Surveillance in antisubmarine warfare has traditionally been carried out by means of submarines or frigates with towed arrays. These techniques are manpower intensive. Alternative approaches have recently been suggested ... -

Formulae for bistatic signal and reverberation
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2002/12)This report demonstrates that it is possible to obtain closed-form solutions for signal and reverberation in a wide variety of bistatic scenarios including ducts and bottom bathymetry. These formulae adapt earlier monostatic ... -
Generic Oceanographic Array Technologies (GOATS)'98: bi-static seabed scattering measurements using autonomous underwater vehicles
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1998/10)The GOATS'98 experiment was performed May 5-29, 1998 in shallow water off Marciana Marina, on the island of Elba, Italy. The experiment addressed some of the fundamental issues associated with using the new Autonomous Ocean ... -
Low frequency active sonar noise rejection in a multistatic sonar system
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1993/08)The use of low frequency active sonar for ASW has repercussions on automated detection performance. Input data contain not only target returns, but also noise formed by returns from the environment The detector may report ... -
