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 ... -
Bottom bistatic scattering: experimental results and model comparison for a carbonate sediment
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)Bistatic scattering measurements were carried out under the Coastal Benthic Boundary Layer (CBBL) program. The results presented here are for a carbonate sand-silt-clay, and the data were collected in Februar) 1995 near ... -
High frequency acoustic propagation in coastal waters
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)High Frequency Acoustic Propagation experiments were performed with bottom-mounted sources and receivers at different coastal sites. A measurement technique has been developed and propagation loss data have been taken using ... -
Measurement of the bubble population in coastal waters using combination frequencies of MHz order
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)This paper describes the use of a combinatron frequency technique to measure the size distribution of oceanic bubbles. Written between two sea trials, the paper describes how the apparatus cart be adapted to design tests ... -
Shallow-water coherence of broadband signals
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)The frequency-dependent spatial and temporal variabilities of sound propagation in coastal regions is investigated by ezperiment and numerical simulations. Experimental observations show that temporal coherence of the ... -
Sound absorption by suspended particulate matter
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)A series of experiments has been performed to study the viscous absorption of sound by particulate suspensions typical of those found in coastal waters. The effect due to the particles in the frequency range of 50 - 150 ... -
The effect of suspended particulate matter on the performance of high frequency sonars in turbid coastal waters
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)Shallow coastal environments are characterised by high levels of suspended mineral particles relative lo the open ocean and such suspensions can have a significant effect on the performance of high frequency sonars operating ...
