A collection of analytical results related to the ASW protection of convoys and carriers
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1987/07)This paper is a collection of diverse analytical results that are related to several aspects of a common problem: the defence of carriers against torpedo-firing submarines. This work is not in any sense a complete treatment ... -
A method to quantify shortfalls and cost benefits for the MO 2015 ASW advanced concepts study
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997/06)An ASW Advanced Concepts Study (ACS) has been initiated as part of Phase 2 of NATO Study, "Implications of New Technology for Maritime Operations in 2015". In this paper, a method to assess ASW search operations is described ... -
An autonomous undersea surveillance vehicle: concept and operational feasibility
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1988/12)The concept of autonomous undersea vehicles (AUVs) is becoming feasible through the increasing practicality of artificial intelligence, decreasing size and cost of computers, and improved technical capabilities. This paper ... -
An unrestricted linear random walk with negative exponentially distributed step lengths
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1966/06)An account is given of the theory of a doubly infinite linear random walk in which step lengths have a negative exponential distribution and the direction of each step is not necessarily equiprobable. The problem of first ... -

EVA - an evaluator of vague evidence in ASW situations: an expert system prototype
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1987/10)This paper presents an example of how an expert system can contribute to the creation and updating -
Planning tools for maritime operations
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1996/06)The Commander Allied Naval Forces Southern Europe (COMNAVSOUTH) tasked SACLANT Undersea Research Centre to conduct a study to optimize the employment of limited ASW assets in the protection of shipping in the Western ... -
Problems of pursuit and evasion
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1966/06)Problems of pursuit and evasion play significant part in naval warfare - particularly in ASW. They are of no less importance in aerial warfare and are now becoming important in space. Their practical importance has given ... -
The application of spread-spectrum communications to REA tactical networks and deployable underwater surveillance systems
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1999/08)The present document is a part of an ongoing study on advanced communication techniques in support of Rapid Environmental Assessment (REA) and Deployable Undersea Surveillance Systems (DUSS). It aims at the definition of ... -
The propagation and reception of transient electromagnetic signals in the presence of a conducting half-space
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1961/05)In this paper a theoretical treatment is given of the short-distance propagation and reception of a step-function in the presence of a conducting half-space. The step-function is generated by a horizontal electric dipole ...
