The Tacotron-Based Signal Synthesis Method for Active Sonar [PDF]
Sensors, 2022 The importance of active sonar is increasing due to the quieting of submarines and the increase in maritime traffic. However, the multipath propagation of sound waves and the low signal-to-noise ratio due to multiple clutter make it difficult to detect ...

Behavioural responses of fin whales to military mid-frequency active sonar [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2023 The effect of active sonars on marine mammal behaviour is a topic of considerable interest and scientific investigation. Some whales, including the largest species (blue whales, Balaenoptera musculus), can be impacted by mid-frequency (1–10 kHz) military

Active Object Detection in Sonar Images [PDF]
IEEE Access, 2020 Object detection in sonar images has always been a challenge due to the low resolution of sonar images and the strong noise existing in them. Although convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been applied to detect objects in sonar images, successful ...

A Phase-Coded Sequence Design Method for Active Sonar [PDF]
Sensors, 2020 Phase-coded sequences are widely studied as the transmitted signals of active sonars. Recently, several design methods have been developed to generate phased-coded sequences satisfying specific aperiodic or periodic autocorrelation sidelobe level metrics.

A risk function for behavioral disruption of Blainville's beaked whales (Mesoplodon densirostris) from mid-frequency active sonar. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 There is increasing concern about the potential effects of noise pollution on marine life in the world's oceans. For marine mammals, anthropogenic sounds may cause behavioral disruption, and this can be quantified using a risk function that relates sound
