Maritime object detection systems, which detects small maritime obstacles such as fish farm buoys and visualizes distance and direction, is equipped with a 3-axis gimbal to compensate for errors caused by hull motion, but there is a limit to distance error corrections necessitated by the vertical movement of the camera and the maritime object due to wave motions. Therefore, in this study, the distance error of maritime object detection systems caused by the movement of the water surface according to the external environment is analyzed and corrected using average filter and moving average filter. Random numbers following a Gaussian standard normal distribution were added to or subtracted from the image coordinates to reproduce the rise or fall of the buoy under irregular waves. The distance calculated according to the change of image coordinates, the predicted distance through the average filter and the moving average filter, and the actual distance measured by laser distance meter were compared. In phases 1 and 2, the error rate increased to a maximum of 98.5% due to the changes of image coordinates due to irregular waves, but the error rate decreased to 16.3% with the moving average filter. This error correction capability was better than with the average filter, but there was a limit due to failure to respond to the distance change. Therefore, it is considered that use of the moving average filter to correct the distance error of the maritime object detection system will enhance responses to the real-time distance change and greatly improve the error rate.

AIS has been widely used for maritime traffic assessment for its convenience. However, AIS has problems with position missing due to radio interference and transmission distance limit. On the other hand, satellite radar determines the location of ships over a wide sea regardless of the problems. This study proposes a noble method of stepwise threshold determination to detect ships from Sentinel-1. The proposed method is up to 25 times faster than the existing moving window-based threshold determination method, and the detection accuracy is similar.

It is very important to meet the maximum detection range in a radar system. In order to meet the maximum detection Range, the sensitivity of the received signal of the radar system must be high. In addition, the dynamic range should be wide in the radar signal processing board. To meet these requirements, the signal processing board must be designed to be robust against external and internal noise. In particular, a design is required to minimize the effect of noise generated by various switching circuits inside the board on the received radar signal. In this paper, we derive the requirements of the signal processor board to meet the radar system performance and describe the design to meet the derived requirements. In addition, the EMC design to minimize the influence of noise input from the outside or generated from the inside is described. Confirm the secured performance through the test of the manufactured board.

Detection ranges of acoustic instruments mainly used for fisheries and their research are derived as the range bordered by a certain signal-to-noise ration (SNR) thershold. The SNR is depicted by several factors on transmitting and receiving, sound propagation, scattering by objects, and mainly self-ship noise. The detection ranges are shown for several fisheries instrument, such as echo sounder, quantiative echo sounder, and bio-telemetry system. The results can be used for designing the instruments, examining the capability of user's own instruments, and interpreting obtained data or echograms. Increasing transmitting power is not as effective for high frequencies as for low frequencies to increase the detection range. Comparison of volume backscattering strengths obtained by the quantitative echo sounder at several frequencies should be done within the same detection range. By applying the concept of the detection range for the bio-telemetry receiver beams, the number of the beams and the beamwidths can be determined.

In the underwater environment, high resolution can be achieved in the range direction by transmitting and receiving a signal of a particular band and/or waveform. The design of a transmit signal used in the active sonar is very important in order to detect a cylindrical object within a short distance less than 1 km, which is the detection distance of this paper. Designing a transmit signal optimal to a sonar requires appropriate selection of its center frequency and bandwidth, which allows the maximum detection distance of a sonar. In this paper, in terms of maximizing echo excess and signal to noise ratio (SNR), optimum frequency analysis is carried out under various conditions of diverse parameters. In addition, the investigation focused on the determinating a bandwidth is also performed for the purpose of satisfying the performance requirement of range resolution and azimuth resolution.

We have constructed a new kind of magnetic motion capture sensor based on the pulse magnetic field method. 3-orthogonal magnetic pulse fields were generated in turns only one period of sinusoidal waveform using 3-orthogonal magnetic dipole coils, ring counter and analog multiplier. These pulse magnetic fields were measured with 3-orthogonal search coils, of which induced voltages by the x-, y-, and l-dipole sources using S/H amplifier at the time position of maximum induced voltage. Using the developed motion capture sensor, we can measure position of sensor with uncertainty of ${\pm}$0.5％ in the measuring range from ${\pm}$0.5 m to ${\pm}$1.5 m.

Anti-drone means a device that detects and blocks the intrusion and activity of illegal drones, and includes technology that crashes illegal drones or destroys them in the air. This paper analyzes the impact of jamming due to remote drone detection with anti-drone technology. The impact of jamming signals may vary depending on the distance of the drone. The present invention has an advantage of simultaneously jamming a drone at a short distance and a drone at a long distance due to the generation of a triangular wave, and efficiently operates a battery by not transmitting the drone at a maximum power.Also, even if the jamming is not affected at a distance, the jamming effect is greater at a close range, so it can be influenced differently.

The existing vessel monitoring system using the ground surveillance radar has a difficulty in monitoring ships continuously due to the limited range of detecting ships. For resolving this problem, we carry out a research on ship detection which is to be the core technology of vessel monitoring system for ocean monitoring using SAR imagery. There are two different methods of detecting ships in SAR imagery: detection of the ship target itself and detection of the ship wake. In this paper, we mainly focus on algorithms which detect the ship itself, and also present the accuracy test after extracting positional and directional figures of the ships. After rectifying input SAR imagery using polynomial transformation, we use Wiener filter to remove speckle noises. A labeling technique and morphological filtering in conjunction with Otsu's method are used to automatically detect the ships based on the image processing domain. For ground truth data, information from a radar system is used, which allows assessing the accuracy of the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method has the high potential in automatically detecting the ships and its positional/directional figures in a fast way.
