The bubbles could be created from multiple source in the surface of ocean. The bubbles which are created like this affect to the intensity and the sound speed of acoustic wave which are used from the ocean. From the research, it observed Reverberation from the sea surface, using Vbeam transmission and reception equipment that was a cross-shaped Array, from 2008 July 2nd to July 3rd at 4Km from the East Sea Mookho port. It is difficult to analyze data because the received signal has ambient noise and occurrence ISI(Inter Symbol Interference) for multipath. This paper remove that ambient noise and ISI using the directions of arrival beamforming and the filter and sum beamforming. After beamforming, a following DFE(Decision Feedback Equalizer) removes the remaining multipath components. Experimental results show that the proposed technique reduce the errors caused by ISI.

The characteristics of bottom sediment may be able to vary within a few meters of depth in shallow water. Since bottom attenuation coefficient as well as sound velocity in the bottom layer is determined by the composition and characteristics of sediment itself, it is reasonable to assume that the bottom attenuation coefficient is accordingly variable with depth. In this study, we use a parabolic equation scheme to examine the effects of depth-varying compressional wave attenuation on acoustic wave propagation in the low frequency ranging from 100 to 805 Hz. The sea floor under consideration is sandy bottom where the water and the sediment depths are 40 meters and 10 meters, respectively. Depending on the assumption that attenuation coefficient is constant or depth-varying, the propagation loss difference is as large as 10dB within 15 km. The predicted propagation loss is very much comparable to the measured one when we employ a depth-varying attenuation coefficient.

To investigate a short-term (from 2 hours to 24 hours) variability of a mixed layer, oceanographical data (water temperature, salinity, current) and meteorological data (wind, air temperature, solar radiation) were collected at a site in the Korea Strait at the interval of one hour for 48 hours from October 12 to 14, 1993. The average rates of temporal variations of the mixed layer depth (MLD) and temperature of the mixed layer (MLT), which are very weakly correlated with the wind stress and buoyancy flux at the sea surface, are about 5.2 m/hour and 0.2$^{\circ}C$/hour, respectively. The mixed layer is relatively shallow when both MLT and MLS (salinity of the mixed layer) are low, while MLD is relatively deep when they are high. MLT shows a sudden decrease or increase. Analysis of satellite infrared images and XBT data shows that sudden increase of MLT is caused by advection of warm water. These results suggest that the short-term variation of the mixed layer in the Korea Strait in autumn, in which surface current is relatively strong and different water masses exist, is mainly determined by advection rather than air0sea interaction such as wind stress or buoyancy flux.

Two hydrographic surveys along with direct current measurements using drogues and moored current meters were conducted in Cheju Strait during April and May, 1983. The data clearly demonstrate that a branch of the Kuroshio characterized by high temperature and high salinity enters the Cheju Strait after turning around the western coast of Cheju-Do. The width of the current turning west of Cheju-Do is about 60 km and reduces to 20∼30 km in the strait, resulting in a high speed(＞10 cm/s) at the western entrance and in the middle of the strait, compared with a low speed (＞5 cm/s) west of Cheju-Do. The Tsushima Current water also originating from the Kuroshio shows its influence in the eastern part of the Cheju Strait. Thermohaline fronts formed between the warm current waters and the coastal waters suggest the southward extension of the Yellow Sea Coastal Water west of the Cheju Strait. A warming of the warm current waters occurs in May, while a cooling takes place in other areas. The major freshening and cooling of water take place in the middle of the Cheju Strait in May due to the intrusion of cold and low salinity water from the west of the Cheju Strait.

In this study, we examine the applicability of the classifier based on an artifical neural network (ANN) for the low-frequency acoustic signal in shallow water environment. The estimations of the Doppler shift and frequency spreading effect at 220 Hz reveal the frequency variation of less than 2 Hz with time This small variation enables the ANN-based classifier to identify signals using only tonal frequency information. The ANN consists of 4 layers, and has 60 input processing elements (PEs) and 4 output PEs, respectively. When measured tonal signals in the frequency 200-250 Hz are applied to the ANN-based classifier, the classifier can identify more than 67% of the signals for instantaneous frame and more than 91% for averaged one over 5 frames.

Spare engine plays an important role for securing readiness of military strength during unexpected fault occurrences and field/depot planned maintenances. The purpose of this research is to present an approach towards the optimal number of spare engines/modules for diversity of aircraft types. We first reviewed two representative approaches, METRIC and meta model. We then investigated military aircrafts and categorized them into 5 types with regard to the engine type and number of engines/modules per aircraft. Through rigorous investigation of planned/non-planned maintenance of each type, we drew parameters and variables involved. As known, due to the complexity of the problem, it is impossible to develop a simple mathematical model with a closed form solution. Based on the airbase operation and maintenance logic with parameters/variable drawn, we developed a simulation model using ARENA well representing real field exercises. For the optimal solution, we applied OptQuest. It has shown that the program developed generates reliable results through a set of case examples.

In underwater wireless communication, needs for long distance communication using the high frequency are surpassing ones of short range communication by ultrasonic wave, and demands for transmitting and receiving various data such as voice or high resolution image data are increasing as well. In this work, we studied the effects on the real underwater communication depending on the difference of digital modulation methods. Simulation shows that only the performance of GMSK among many other PSK based modulation schemes(BPSK, QPSK, MSK, GMSK) is significant. Test condition simulates the oceanographic conditions along the 207-survey line, 15Km south of Busan and SNR is maintained 35dB or below. Simulated tests are composed of both transmitting image data($3{\times}10^5$ pixel, 4 bit per pixel) and voice communication($10^{-2}$BER, channel capacity of 1Kbps). Test results show that there are gain of about 7 seconds in transmission time in image transmission case, where channel capacity for BPSK, QPSK, and MSK and for GMSK were 65 Kbps and 45 Kbps, respectively and gain of about 8Km in distances in voice communication case.

Phase variance of the acoustic signals has to be investigated with the research of the medium, because the phase of the acoustic signals carries the information of the medium. The phase compensation of the received signals is required for the signal processing of SAS (Synthetic Aperture Sonar) and underwater communication. In this paper, the phase variance of the acoustic signals was studied depending on the micro-scale-turbulence of ocean. The turbulence strength of the locally isotropic and homogeneous turbulence was calculated, and the phase variance affected by the turbulence strength was computed along the ray paths. The CTD and ADCP data were acquired from a buoy system near the Mukho port in the East Sea of Korea and the ray paths were calculated by the Bellhop algorithm. As a result, the turbulence strength was mainly determined by the variation of temperature and flow speed, changing the phase variance of the received signals. Hence, we thought the phase variance should be considered in the sonar operating system.

This study includes the efficiency assessment of a multiple access protocol for UUV (Underwater unmanned vehicle) control. Most of UUVs are controled by wire now; however, wireless control is demanded because of the demerit of the wire control that limits the place and activity. This study simulates efficiency of a standardization multiple access protocol (Pure ALOHA, Slotted ALOHA, Nonpersistent CSMA, Slotted Nonpersistent ISMA) formed for the purpose of performing wireless communication controlled by the ship or communication buoy at the sea surface and by the under water communication node at the bottom in order to efficiently control the UUV's. Results show that no significant changes occur related to changing type of the mother ship and the communication node; In addition, the Non-persistent CSMA and the Slotted Non-persistent ISMA show relatively high efficiency for underwater acoustic communication.
