Side scanning sonar (SSS) provides valuable information for robot navigation. However using the side scanning sonar images in the navigation was not fully studied. In this paper, we use range data, and side scanning sonar images from UnderWater Simulator (UWSim) and propose measurement models in a feature based simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) framework. The range data is obtained by echosounder and sidescanning sonar images from side scan sonar module for UWSim. For the feature, we used the A-KAZE feature for the SSS image matching and adjusting the relative robot pose by SSS bundle adjustment (BA) with Ceres solver. We use BA for the loop closure constraint of pose-graph SLAM. We used the Incremental Smoothing and Mapping (iSAM) to optimize the graph. The optimized trajectory was compared against the dead reckoning (DR).

It is important to manage artificial fish reefs with installation for restoration. The instruments of survey for artificial reefs condition(location, amount etc.) is Side Scan Sonar and Multi-beam sonar. The efficient and economic survey of the artificial reefs facility is the complete survey of the SSS(Side Scan Sonar) in all area first and then the survey of the artificial reefs by MBES(Multi Beam Echo Sounder) in the finding area.

This paper deals with the Gain Control in the processing of the underwater acoustic image obtained from side scan sonar(SSS) system. At first, this paper describes the principles of SSS that is a surveying equipment for the underground of the rivers or dams as well as sea floor. Then this paper analyzes the cause and effects of the time varying intensity from the view point of transmission loss and beam pattern. At last, the time varying gain filter that is adopted by the towfish is introduced.

부설된 기뢰를 소해하기 위해 기뢰매설 예상구역에 대한 탐색을 수행한다. 이 때 기뢰탐색은 기뢰의 위험성, 아군의 안정성 등을 고려하여 자율무인잠수정을 이용한다. 매설된 기뢰를 식별하기 위한 소나시스템은 측면주사소나, 합성개구소나 등을 탑재한다. 본 논문은 측면주사소나 특성에 따른 기뢰탐색효과도 분석에 대해 기술한다. 각 측면주사소나의 특성을 바탕으로 음향조사역 및 인식확률을 모델링 하였고, AUV의 주행패턴에 따라 분석을 수행하였다. AUV의 주행패턴은 측면주사소나 음영구역의 유무에 따라 3가지 탐색패턴을 정의하였다. 분석결과는 각 탐색패턴 마다 탐지시간, 탐지확률을 도출하고 최종적으로 측면주사소나 음영구역의 유무에 따른 탐색 향상도를 도출하였다.

Side Scan Sonar (SSS) is capable of acquiring real-time data for seabed scouring, bathymetry, mine countermeasurement, etc. In a shipyard, an SSS package is utilized to measure the water depth and find debris in the sea because a sufficient water depth and non-interruption have to be ensured before implementing an underwater installation such as a large thruster. This paper presents the application and operation method of an SSS for the construction of an offshore project.

Recently, side scan sonar system has been developed and operated to survey cable laying, sunken bodies, geometry of sea bottom and so on. It uses the acoustic signals, which are emitted from two transducer arrays, left and right sides, to get geometric information of the specified area. This system consists of transceiver board, towed body, deck unit and GPS receiver. The transceiver board, nested in a watertight canister, controls the transmitting and receiving of the acoustic pulses from transducer arrays. After receiving the scattered signals, it processes BP(Band Pass) filtering, AGC(Automatic Gain Control), TVG(Time Varying Gain) and Heterodyne. The deck init has the signal processing part, A/D converter, power supplier, and real-time monitoring part. The towed body has been designed to satisfy the optimal hydrodynamic behavior during towing, In this paper, brief introductions on the design theory of transceiving part and some results from the field which have been operated recently will be introduced.

2003년, 2006년과 2007년, 사할린 북동사면 $53^{\circ}56'\;N$, $143^{\circ}52'\;E$ to $54^{\circ}40'\;N$, $144^{\circ}32'\;E$ 지역에서 음향측심, side-scan sonar (SSS), 고해상도 스파커 탄성파 탐사를 포함한 다양한 주파수 대역의 음향탐사를 실시하였다. 높은 후방산란강도를 가진 약 130여개의 메탄분출구들이 해저면에 발달해 있는 SSS 영상도를 획득하였다. 음향측심탐사에서의 수층 가스분출구조와 탄성파탐사에서의 해저지층 가스기둥구조들이 이 해저면 구조들과 잘 부합하여 나타난다. 이런 메탄분출구조들은 북서 주향을 갖는 Lavrentiev 단층과 평행한 구조선을 따라 배열하는 것처럼 보인다.

Accurate measurement of seafloor topography plays a crucial role in developing marine industries such as maritime safety, resource exploration, environmental protection, and coastal management. The seafloor topography is constructed using side scan sonar (SSS) and single beam echosounder (SBES) or multibeam echosounder (MBES), which transmit and receive ultrasound waves through a device attached to a marine survey vessel. However, the use of a sonar system is affected by noise pollution areas, and the single beam has a limited scope of application. At the same time, the multibeam is mainly applicable for depth observation. For these reasons, it is difficult to determine the boundaries and areas of seafloor topography. Therefore, this study proposes a method to improve the backscatter data of multibeam echosounder, which has a relationship with the seafloor quality, by using digital image processing to classify the shape of the underwater surface.
