An analytical study of source localization in shallow water by matched-field processing of horizontal arrays
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1992/08)Over the last few years a large number of studies have reported results of range-depth localization of sound sources by matched-field processing of vertical arrays in known environments. The performance of matched-field ... -
An experimental study in forming a long synthetic aperture in the sea
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1992/09)Successful experimental testing of synthetic aperture techniques for sonar systems have been very limited and only few results, including very stable CW signals, have been published. These experimental results and theoretical ... -
Deployable underwater surveillance systems: analysis of experimental results: part III
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1999/04)Deployable Underwater Surveillance Systems (DUSS) are a new active sonar concept based on a distributed network of small multistatic transmitter / receiver nodes. This study analyzes data acquired during the period 29 June ... -
DUSS97: source localization and environmental inversion using vertical array data
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1998/08)Results on source localization and environmental inversion using experimental data acquired on a vertical line array are presented. Global inversion methods based on genetic algorithms are utilized to estimated the range ... -
GLider Acoustics Sensing of Sediments (GLASS): experiments and data analysis
(CMRE, 2013/12)Seabed characteristics (geoacoustic properties and scattering strength) are critical parameters for sonar performance predictions. However, this bottom information is considered very difficult and expensive to achieve in ... -
Horizontal array gain in shallow water
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1980/12)Some results of a comprehensive model study on the use of horizontal hydrophone arrays in shallow water are presented. Well-known signal processing techniques are applied to a shallow-water sound propagation model in order ... -
Long range, large throughput radio data links for DUSS (Deployable Underwater Surveillance Systems)
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1999/10)Two mono-directional radio telemetry systems are described operating from a buoy to NRV Alliance at frequencies of 0.4 and 2.28 GHz. Digital data at 2 Mbps were transmitted close to the sea surface, collecting information ... -
Optimum bearing resolution for a moving towed array and extension of its physical aperture
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1989/04)This report examines the limits of the angular resolution capability of a moving towed array (MTA) by -
Performance assessment of the SACLANTCEN vertical array in shallow water
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1994/03)In this memoranduin the performance of the SACLANTCEN vertical -
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 characterization of a range-dependent environment using towed horizontal array data from the MAPEX 2000 experiment
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 2002/11)The characterization of ocean environments using geoacoustic inversion techniques has received a
