Problem Summary for SF-101-03-16/8132,
Abstract
This document is intended to determine properties of acoustic signals, signal processing and display techniques, and terminal decision procedures which can be used effectively to detect and classify active sonar contacts. To provide in technical reports or as system design assistance, the bases for improved detection and classification techniques in operational systems. Improvements in sonar detection and classification require search for better signal inforamtion and for ways to make more effective use of known information. Physical analysis and quantitative tests of raw and processed sonar signals from operational and experimental equipments are used to identify signal variables which show promise for detection and classification discrimination. Signal processing, computer simulation and electronic display techniques, together with supporting theoretical concepts of information processing, communication theory, and decision theory are applied to signal waveforms to establish the effectiveness and design requirements of automatic and semi-automatic detection and classification systems.
