    • Bottom reflection properties deduced from an ambient noise: simulation of a processing technique 

      Harrison, Chris H.; Baldacci, Alberto (NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2002/11)
      A promising new method has already been proposed [SACLANTCEN SM-387] to calculate bottom reflection loss from ambient noise directionality. Although this method has been tried experimentally at more than 11 sites under ...
    • Formulae for bistatic signal and reverberation 

      Harrison, Chris H. (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 ...
    • Noise measurements during MAPEX 2000 

      Harrison, Chris H. (NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2002/03)
      During MAPEX2000 some simultaneous ambient noise measurements with an HLA and satellite SAR images were collected. The aim was to predict shipping and wind noise from the satellite radar and to compare results with acoustic ...
    • Predicting underwater ambient noise with an evolutionary signal processing method 

      Alvarez, Alberto; Harrison, Chris H.; Siderius, Martin (NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2001/06)
      In this report we employ recent developments in non-linear physics and time series prediction to study the physical characteristics of measured underwater ambient sounds. Specifically, we examine the predictability of a ...
    • Signal and reverberation formulae including refraction 

      Harrison, Chris H. (NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2003/04)
      Because reverberation is an incoherent process it is possible to base realistic solutions on very simple flux theory. This report extends the closed-form signal and reverberation formulae of an earlier report [SACLANTCEN ...
    • SUPREMO: a multistatic sonar performance model 

      Harrison, Chris H. (NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2002/11)
      Multistatic sonars introduce new problems to the modeller such as mutual interference from multiple sources and variable target aspect in a background of range-dependent bistatic reverberation. A multistatic sonar performance ...
