Measuring currents is a fundamental practice of physical oceanographers. A year baseline inventory of modeling techniques was updated with the latest developments, including basic mathematics and references to the key literature, to guide soundscape practitioners to the most efficient modeling techniques for any given application. The bottom structure is modeled as a fluid sediment layer over a solid half-space. He has conducted more than 60 scientific expeditions in the Arctic, Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. Ocean acidification, which occurs when CO 2 in the atmosphere reacts with water to create carbonic acid H 2 CO 3 , has increased. Most traditional active sonars are configured in what is termed a monostatic geometry, meaning that the source and receiver are at the same position. Reverberation is sound that is scattered by the ocean boundaries sea surface and sea floor or by the volumetric inhomogeneities. Ant colony optimization ACO has elements in common with genetic algorithms [ ]. Martinez, and K. Underwater Networks Ocean-bottom sensor nodes are used for oceanographic data collection, pollution monitoring, offshore exploration, tactical surveillance applications, and rapid environmental assessments [ 2 , 3 ]. Pages Martin-Lauzer, F. Acoustic communication systems are intrinsically reliable, extremely sensitive, inherently rugged, and are competitively priced. The usual task is to find the inverse of these calculations, that is, to find models or make maps from the data. A large perforated can is fastened by drawstrings on the end of the net to retain the sample in relatively undamaged condition. Hjelmervik and G. The emission of carbon into the atmosphere through the effects of fossil-fuel combustion and industrial processes has increased atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide CO 2. Processing investigations will also include techniques to maintain processing gain with reduced acoustic source level: continuous acoustic transmission to ensonify submarine and torpedo targets and planning techniques for optimum placement of transducers. The projected growth in the market will be driven by continuous developments in wireless communication technologies that break through the water-air barrier. In situ measurements of water transparency and absorption include the submarine photometer, the hydrophotometer, and the Secchi disk. Pierce, Extension of the method of normal modes to sound propagation in an almost stratified medium, J. The course material is based on rigorous scientific principles of underwater acoustics, and content includes working examples of real-world industrial applications. Unable to display preview. The following assumptions and conditions were imposed in construction of Figure 3 , which was originally adapted from F. Evans, A coupled mode solution for acoustic propagation in a waveguide with stepwise depth variation of a penetrable bottom, J. Collins and C. This concept can be extended to ocean environments where the sound speed is not constant, or where there are slight losses at the boundaries. The solution includes scattering effects to all orders in that it sums the infinite series of forward and backward contributions at each range point and maintains energy conservation, i SWAMP is a range-dependent normal-mode model that contains closed-analytical forms of the vertical mode functions, which facilitate computation of one-way mode-coupling coefficients between adjacent range-independent regions by neglecting weak backscattering components [ 44 , 45 ]. Sturm and J. Underwater gliders actually constitute a new class of autonomous underwater vehicles that glide by controlling their buoyancy and attitude using internal actuators [ 8 ]. However, this application is longer term. Acoustic Signal Processing for Ocean Exploration Writer The grid of transmission-loss values produced by the model for each source location is used to attenuate the spectral acoustic output levels of the corresponding noise source to generate absolute received sound levels at each grid point. Controlled-exposure experiments have studied changes in the behavior of nearby whales due to these powerful sources; however, modeling uncertainty complicates the regulatory interpretation of average sound-exposure conditions. Software development utilized a system test bed STB comprising a collection of scaleable, portable, and reusable components for constructing sensor-based applications. Regulatory Initiatives An examination of anthropogenic sound in a global context considered the need for new regulatory initiatives to deal with the conflicting uses of ocean space related to noise [ 17 ]. Tolstoy and C. An observation unit could emit a soundwave, then clock how long it takes that soundwave to reflect off the piezoelectric sensor and return to the observation unit. Advances in sonar technologies have rendered modern sonar systems useful for in situ measurements of the ambient marine environment. Underwater gliders actually constitute a new class of autonomous underwater vehicles that glide by controlling their buoyancy and attitude using internal actuators [ 8 ]. Range-dependent wave-theoretical models based on normal-mode, fast-field wavenumber integration , or parabolic-equation approaches are preferred for low-frequency experiments in shallow water. Each of the five techniques has a unique domain of applicability that can be defined in terms of acoustic frequency and environmental complexity. Both are population-based algorithms that search a discrete space and provide uncertainty analyses. Finally, Section 5 summarizes the notable advances in underwater acoustic modeling that support management of the underwater soundscape. The specific utility of these categories is further explained below. Related articles. His research interests include signal processing for underwater acoustic imaging, wideband array design, noise cancellation, underwater acoustical communication, ultrasound medical imaging, and broadband acoustic current measurement. The feasibility of using active sonars to monitor the movement of marine mammals was investigated in order to recommend stand-off distances within which an acoustic source should not be deployed [ ]. Littoral training ranges to support this new generation of sonar systems must comply with more stringent environmental regulations. Brown and M. Each frequency has a different wavelength, so the reflected sound waves return to the observation unit at different phases. Environmental databases describe the ocean environment, targets, platforms and sonar-system characteristics. Wilson, and R. Since sound level, frequency, and duration are critical parameters in causing physical damage to marine life, transmitting over a wider frequency spectrum using spread-spectrum techniques or noise-like signals could avoid tissue damage by reducing the time spent or energy transmitted in particular frequency bands. Understanding and processing these datasets helps in making regulatory and financial decisions, which is of paramount importance. Furthermore, if the acoustic frequency is high enough that the field oscillations can be considered to be random, then an average intensity can be calculated using simple algebraic formulas [ 23 ]. The tabu search begins by marching to a local minimum. Acoustic Signal Processing for Ocean Exploration Reviews Choi, K. Hildebrand, S. Sunita L. The algorithms and sensors used in synthetic aperture sonars are much different from traditional sides can sonars. These computations are then fed into MSASM, which is capable of estimating the performance of active sonar systems for multiple sources, receivers, and targets. Canepa and C. Some fishes and invertebrates make up layers of acoustic-scattering material, which may exhibit daily vertical movement related to daily changes in light. Review articles are excluded from this waiver policy. Nodes in underwater sensor networks are constrained by harsh physical environments. The deep-water acoustic waveguide was modeled by an unperturbed sound-speed profile [ z ] combined with weak fluctuations of sound speed caused by a random field of internal waves conforming to the Garrett-Munk spectrum. Evolving Challenges 2. Several choices of starting fields are provided, including a Gaussian source beam of varying width and tilt with respect to the horizontal. To track moving objects, the researchers actually had to boost the bitrate. Thus, in most cases, measurements and sampling of marine life is best done in concert with measurements of the physical and chemical

This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Modern sonar systems have greatly improved their sensor technology and processing techniques, but little effort has been put into display design for sonar data. The enormous amount of acoustic data presented by the traditional frequency versus time display can be overwhelming for a sonar operator to monitor and analyze. The recent emphasis placed on networked underwater warfare also requires the operator to create and maintain awareness of the overall tactical picture in order to improve overall effectiveness in communication and sharing of critical data. In addition to regular sonar tasks, sonobuoy system operators must manage the deployment of sonobuoys and ensure proper functioning of deployed sonobuoys. This thesis examines an application of the Ecological Interface Design framework in the interface design of a sonobuoy system on board a maritime patrol aircraft. Background research for this thesis includes a literature review, interviews with subject matter experts, and an analysis of the decision making process of sonar operators from an information processing perspective. A work domain analysis was carried out, which yielded a dual domain model: the domain of sonobuoy management and the domain of tactical situation awareness address the two different aspects of the operator's work.

This information enables computation of azimuths of low-frequency acous- tic sources from a single compact sensor. The standard approach for estimating azimuth from these sensors is by conventional beamforming (i.e., adding weighted time series), but the resulting “cardioid” beampattern is imprecise, computationally expensive, and vulnerable to directional noise contamination for weak signals. Demonstrated here is an alternative multiplicative processing scheme that computes the “active intensity” of an acoustic signal to obtain the dominant direction- ality of a noise field as a function of time and frequency. This information is conveniently displayed as an “azigram,” which is analogous to a spectrogram, but uses color to indicate azimuth instead of intensity.

  • A Review on Deep Learning-Based Approaches for Automatic Sonar Target Recognition
    electronics Review A Review on Deep Learning-Based Approaches for Automatic Sonar Target Recognition Dhiraj Neupane and Jongwon Seok * Department of Information and Communication Engineering, Changwon National University, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do 51140, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 13 October 2020; Accepted: 19 November 2020; Published: 22 November 2020 Abstract: Underwater acoustics has been implemented mostly in the field of sound navigation and ranging (SONAR) procedures for submarine communication, the examination of maritime assets and environment surveying, target and object recognition, and measurement and study of acoustic sources in the underwater atmosphere. With the rapid development in science and technology, the advancement in sonar systems has increased, resulting in a decrement in underwater casualties. The sonar signal processing and automatic target recognition using sonar signals or imagery is itself a challenging process. Meanwhile, highly advanced data-driven machine-learning and deep learning-based methods are being implemented for acquiring several types of information from underwater sound data. This paper reviews the recent sonar automatic target recognition, tracking, or detection works using deep learning algorithms. A thorough study of the available works is done, and the operating procedure, results, and other necessary details regarding the data acquisition process, the dataset used, and the information regarding hyper-parameters is presented in

  • Bistatic Sonobuoy Deployment Strategies for Detecting Stationary and Mobile Underwater Targets
    Bistatic Sonobuoy Deployment Strategies for Detecting Stationary and Mobile Underwater Targets Mumtaz Karatas Emily Craparo (1) Industrial Engineering Department Department of Operations Research Naval Academy, National Defense University Naval Postgraduate School Istanbul, 34940, TURKEY Monterey, CA 93943, USA [email protected] [email protected] (2) Bahcesehir University Istanbul, 34353, TURKEY Gülşen Akman Industrial Engineering Department Kocaeli University Kocaeli, 41380, TURKEY [email protected] ABSTRACT The problem of determining effective allocation schemes of underwater sensors for surveillance, search, detection, and tracking purposes is a fundamental research area in military OR. Among the various sensor types, multistatic sonobuoy systems are a promising development in submerged target detection systems. These systems consist of sources (active sensors) and receivers (passive sensors), which need not be collocated. A multistatic sonobuoy system consisting of a single source and receiver is called a bistatic system. The sensing zone of this fundamental system is defined by Cassini ovals. The unique properties and unusual geometrical profile of these ovals distinguish the bistatic sensor allocation problem from conventional sonar placement problems. This study is aimed at supporting decision makers in making the best use of bistatic sonobuoys to detect stationary and mobile targets transiting through an area of interest. We use integral geometry and geometric probability concepts to derive analytic expressions for the optimal source and receiver separation distances to maximize the detection probability of a submerged target. We corroborate our analytic results using Monte Carlo simulation. Our approach constitutes a valuable “back of the envelope” method for the important and difficult problem of analyzing bistatic sonar performance.
