  • 능동소나를 이용한 대잠전 환경에서 클러터는 표적탐지 및 추적성능을 저하시키는 가장 큰 원인 중 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 중주파수 능동소나에서 표적 피크 신호의 통계적 특징을 이용한 단일 핑 클러터 제거 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 표적 피크 영역을 제외한 잔향 존재 영역에서 오탐지율을 줄이는 기법이나 여러 핑을 누적하여 기동 패턴을 분석하여 표적과 클러터를 구분하는 기법들의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 단일 핑 데이터의 표적 피크 영역에서 통계적 특징 정보를 이용하여 클러터와 표적신호를 구분한다. 실제 표적을 이용한 해상실험에서 성능을 검증하였으며 기존 대비 클러터가 약 80 % 이상 제거되는 것을 확인하였다.

  • 초계함(천안함급)에 탑재 된 HMS(Hull Mount Sonar) 장비는 능동모드에 적합하도록 설계 되어 있다. 이에 센서 및 시스템 특성이 어뢰 탐지 주파수 대역에 적당하도록 구성되어 있지는 않다. 이에 초계함에 장착 된 기존 HMS 장비를 이용한 어뢰탐지 기능 구현을 위하여, 초계함 함 별 입력 특성을 분석하고, 입력 주파수 신호에 대한 역보상 회로 설계, 입력 신호 크기에 따른 AGC(Auto Gain Control) 기능 구현 및 함별 신호특성에 따른 대역설정 기능을 통하여 함정 별 특성 및 운용환경 특성에 맞는 어뢰방어시스템을 구현한다.

  • This study suggest the improvement of the CFRP adhesive mixing ratio about acoustic window to enhance SONAR performance. The CFRP of submarine is produced by allocation an acoustic window zone by the beam width of SONAR sensors. During the sea trial, SONAR system's bearing and range accuracy data is not in tolerance due to debonding phenomenon on CFRP. The inappropriate mixing ratio of adhesives caused that peeling phenomenon occurred in the acoustic window part, which is the reason for the deterioration of SONAR sensors performance. The report includes explanation of test procedure of SONAR, root cause analysis, CFRP manufacturing procedure, laboratory tests results, and proof of the performance at the sea trial.

  • Target motion analysis with a sonar system in general uses a regular sampling time and thus obtains regular target information regardless of the target maneuver status. This often results in overconsumption of the limited sonar resources. We propose two methods of the IMM(interacting Multiple Model) PDAF algorithm for sonar resource management to improve target motion analysis performance and to save sonar resources in this paper. In the first method, two different process noise covariance which are used as mode sets are combined based on probability. In the second method, resource time which are processed from two mode sets is calculated based on probability and then considered as update time at next step. Performance of the proposed algorithms are compared with the other algorithms by a series of Monte Carlo simulation.

  • The combination of Multi-Beam Echo Sounder swath bathymetry and high-resolution towed Sidescan sonar provides a powerful method of examination about hydrographic survey results. In this paper, we investigate the fast method of 3D bathymetric reconstruction with the Digital Sidescan sonar(Benthos SIS 1500) and Shallow Multi-Beam Echo Sounder(Reson Seabat 8125). The Seabat 8125 is a 455KHz high resolution focused Multibeam echo sounder(MBES) system which measures the relative water depth across a wide swath perpendicular to a vessel's track. The Benthos SIS1500 is a chirp(nominal fq. 200KHz) sonar which map the topographical features & sediment texture of ocean bottom using backscattered amplitude. We generates the very large 3D bathymetric texture mapping model with the Helical System's HHViewer and describes additional benefits of combining MBES and Sidescan Sonar imagery, the removal of geometric distortions in the model and a deterministic sounding noise.

  • Underwater acoustics, which is the study of phenomena related to sound waves in water, has been applied mainly in research on the use of sound navigation and range (SONAR) systems for communication, target detection, investigation of marine resources and environments, and noise measurement and analysis. The main objective of underwater acoustic remote sensing is to obtain information on a target object indirectly by using acoustic data. Presently, various types of machine learning techniques are being widely used to extract information from acoustic data. The machine learning techniques typically used in underwater acoustics and their applications in passive SONAR systems were reviewed in the first two parts of this work (Yang et al., 2020a; Yang et al., 2020b). As a follow-up, this paper reviews machine learning applications in SONAR signal processing with a focus on active target detection and classification.

  • In this research, items and contents of SONAR were derived from investigation of OMS/MP of previously-operated submarines and domestic and international references related to weapon system. Such items and contents were established in detail and were categorized into four separate groups after consulting system design experts and specialists in the field of SONAR's operation. Ultimately, based on wartime and peacetime scenario and operation concept of SONAR, RAM values were obtained through various methods using submarine-operating records and maintenance records for the past eleven years.

  • In the past few years, there are many studies and researches of the underwater vehicles which are carried out its mission using sonar sensors. MSCL(Marine System Control Lab.) at Inha University developed test-bed small ROV, ISRO. ISRO is an open-frame type and has 4 thrusters. ISRO can control 4 motions i.e surge, sway, yaw and heave with sonar sensors. ISRO is developed for inspection of ship hull, marine structure, plant of lake or river and so on. When ROV ISRO inspects something, it is necessary to control the position of ROV ISRO's for the movement and anti-collision with structures in the underwater. In this paper, we deal with the development of a small ROV and verification of the position control system via simulation and experiment using sonar sensors.

  • A sensor fusion scheme for mobile robot environment recognition that incorporates range data and contour data is proposed. Ultrasonic sensor provides coarse spatial description but guarantees open space with no obstacle within sonic cone with relatively high belief. Laser structured light system provides detailed contour description of environment but prone to light noise and is easily affected by surface reflectivity. Overall fusion process is composed of two stages: Noise elimination and belief updates. Dempster Shafer´s evidential reasoning is applied at each stage. Open space estimation from sonar range measurements brings elimination of noisy lines from laser sensor. Comparing actual sonar data to the simulated sonar data enables ...

  • The response behavior of a fish school to an approaching vessel was observed using scanning sonar. The evaluation using six parameters, which signify characteristics of school shape and behavior by sonar image processing, was proposed. Ten fish schools were analyzed and among them, three fish schools were identified for their changing shape, swimming direction, and swimming speed. Moreover, by tracing fish schools on stack of sonar images, these fish schools were seen to exhibit an apparent change of school shape and behavior. Therefore, the evaluation method of fish school behavior using six characteristic parameters indicating fish school shape and behavior by sonar image processing is useful.
