      Stoll, Robert D.; Bautista, Edgar O. (NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)
      In propagation at higher frequencies, local fluid motion in "hidden coordinate" systems and local discontinuities due to gas bubbles and bioturbation have a perturbing effect on the wave field. To model these effects, a ...

    • Graphics for real-time signal-processing systems 

      McCann, Michael J. (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 ...
    • Hamiltonian methods in hydro-acoustic propagation 

      Koopman, Bernard Osgood (NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1971/12)
      The investigation that I wish to outline here originated in the military need of forecasting detection p r obabilities of underwater acoustic emitters, in case s in which only a somewhat general idea of the sound speed ...
    • Heterogeneous information fusion for multitarget tracking using the sum-product algorithm 

      Soldi, Giovanni; Gaglione, Domenico; Meyer, Florian; Hlawatsch, Franz; Braca, Paolo; Farina, Alfonso; Win, Moe Z. (CMRE, 2019/06)
      The sum-product algorithm (SPA) was recently shown to provide a scalable methodology for multitarget tracking (MTT) using multiple sensors. Here, we focus on another advantage of the SPA frame-work, namely, its capacity ...
    • Heterogeneous underwater networks for ASW: technology and techniques 

      Been, Robert; Hughes, David T.; Vermeij, Arjan (NURC, 2008/06)
      NATO's research and technology objectives for anti-submarine warfare (ASW) include persistent scalable heterogeneous wide-area surveillance networks for the littoral environment. Network and system design considerations ...
