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 ... -
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 ... -
Converted measurements Bayesian extended target tracking applied to X-band marine radar data
(CMRE, 2019/06)X-band marine radar systems are flexible and low-cost tools for monitoring multiple targets in a surveillance area. They can provide high resolution measurements both in space and time. Such features offer the opportunity ... -
Converted measurements random matrix approach to extended target tracking using X-band marine radar data
(CMRE, 2019/06)Conventional tracking algorithms rely upon the hypothesis of one detection per target for each frame. However, very fine spatial resolution radars represent widespread systems that provide data for which this hypothesis ... -
Cooperative robotic networks for underwater surveillance: an overview
(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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Doppler passive fathometry
(CMRE, 2019/05)Passive fathometry is a technique whereby broadband ambient ocean noise received on an array of hydrophones is averaged and cross-correlated to produce a sub-bottom profile [Siderius, Harrison, and Porter (2006). J. Acoust. ... -
Effect of different bandwidths for the detection of extended targets in reverberation
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1993/08)In this paper, firstly the theoretical background of bandwidth effects on detection in noise and reverberation is presented in some detail, and secondly the relevant results of sea. trials with a low frequency active sonar ... -
Estimation of chirp sonar signal attenuation for classification of marine sediments: improved spectral ratio method
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)Remote sediment classification through acoustic methods is of great interest for a few years. The attenuation coefficient of the transmitted wave is an important feature to characterize physical sediment layers properties. ... -
Experience with a MAP 300 array processor
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1979/12)The paper is a summary of the experience collected during almost two years of programming a CSPI MAP 300 array ' processor in signal processing applications. After a short overview of the most interesting features of SNAP ... -

Extended target tracking using joint probabilistic data association filter on X-band radar data
(CMRE, 2019/06)X-band Marine radar systems are low-cost tools for monitoring multiple targets in a surveillance area. Although they may suffer from several sources of interference, high resolution measurements in both space and time can ... -
Graphics for real-time signal-processing systems
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1979/12)A graphics software package able to produce hardcopy plots of multi-channel (of the order of 100 channels) data for real-time applications is described. The system is implemented at present using a lineprinter with graphics ... -
High resolution feature extraction from reverberation data
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)A new method of signal approximatzon is presented which has the capability to model complex active returns due to reverberation. The method explored herein is data adaptive in the sense that high resolution processing is ... -
Incoherent sub-band averaging for improved target detection and Doppler estimation in linearly frequency modulated continuous active sonar
(CMRE, 2019/05)Linear frequency modulated (LFM) continuous active sonar (CAS) waveforms show promise for use in target tracking given that waveforms can be split into sub-waveforms (sub-bands), thereby increasing the target refresh rate. ... -
Influence of background-noise spatial coherence on high-resolution passive method
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1982/06)New signal processing methods for passive listening have appeared recently : they are called "high resolution" methods because they have theoretically a better resolving power than conventional or adaptive beamforming . ... -
Joint probabilistic data association tracker for extended target tracking applied to X-band marine radar data
(CMRE, 2017/11)X-band marine radar systems are flexible and low-cost tools for monitoring multiple targets in a surveillance area. Although they may suffer from several sources of interference, e.g., sea clutter, they can provide ... -
Knowledge-based ship tracking applied to HF surface wave radar data
(CMRE, 2019/06)In recent years, low-power high-frequency surface-wave radars have received significant attention thanks to their over-the-horizon coverage capability and the continuous-time operation mode. These radars have become effective ... -
