Experimental evaluation of Net-LBL: an acoustic network-based navigation system
(CMRE, 2019/06)
This paper describes the use and in-field evaluation of a Networked-Long Base Line system (Net-LBL) where a network of underwater nodes cooperate to support the localisation and navigation of mobile vehicles. To avoid the ...
Heterogeneous underwater networks for ASW: technology and techniques
(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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Real-time clock synchronisation in underwater acoustic networks
(CMRE, 2019/06)
This paper proposes an algorithm for real-time clock synchronisation in underwater acoustic networks. The algorithm models modem clocks as linear functions and embeds the data necessary for the clock synchronisation procedure ...
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 ...
Bandwidth efficient concurrent localisation and communication in underwater acoustic networks
(CMRE, 2019/05)
Localisation is essential for an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) to perform its mission and to georeference any data acquired during the dive. When the AUV is part of a heterogeneous underwater acoustic network (UAN), ...
Cooperation and networking in an underwater network composed by heterogeneous assets
(CMRE, 2019/06)
Underwater communication and robot technologies have grown rapidly in the last decade. Systems made of underwater unmanned vehicles have moved from single vehicle deployments to systems comprising teams of assets. As of ...
Dynamic placement of a constellation of surface buoys for enhanced underwater positioning
(CMRE, 2019/06)
This paper addresses the challenge of dynamically adapting the location of the nodes in an acoustic network to optimise the localisation performance of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) operating in the area. A dynamic ...
