Passive tracking of underwater acoustic targets based on multi-beam LOFAR and deep learning

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Conventional passive tracking methods for underwater acoustic targets in sonar engineering generate time azimuth histogram and use it as a basis for target azimuth and tracking.

A theoretical and experimental investigation into multilayered piezoelectric composite transducers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The behaviour of a number of 3-1 connectivity piezoelectric composite plate transducers is presented. The fundamental thickness mode resonance of such devices is found to be contaminated by lateral resonant activity; this is evidenced in the measured and

Active Control of the Reflection Coefficient of an Underwater Surface

open access: yesAcoustics, 2023
From a strategic point of view, it is essential to protect underwater vehicles from being detected by opponents. Modern mono- or bistatic sonar systems are capable of precisely determining the position of a watercraft.

Multi-Stage Feature Extraction and Classification for Ship-Radiated Noise

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Due to the complexity and unique features of the hydroacoustic channel, ship-radiated noise (SRN) detected using a passive sonar tends mostly to distort. SRN feature extraction has been proposed to improve the detected passive sonar signal. Unfortunately,

Target Tracking from Weak Acoustic Signals in an Underwater Environment Using a Deep Segmentation Network

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
In submarine warfare systems, passive SONAR is commonly used to detect enemy targets while concealing one’s own submarine. The bearing information of a target obtained from passive SONAR can be accumulated over time and visually represented as a two ...
