The ASW Classification Problem in a Multicontact Environment-A Queuing Approach

Abstract

The passive classification process aboard a submarine is studied. In particular the operations of the sonars in a multicontact environment are treated as a time-shared processing system. The processors are the passive sonars and the customers are the sonar contacts. The report gives the rationale for describing the system in this manner. The queuing system equations are not yet formulated. General measures of effectiveness are presented which can be obtained through the queuing approach. (Author)
