Examination of the Sonar Detection Models Used by the Naval War College Gaming System.

Abstract

This thesis describes an evaluation of the active and passive acoustic detection modules of the Naval War College Gaming System (NWCGS) that has been installed at the Naval War College in Newport, Rhode Island. The specific intent of the evaluation is to verify that the model is theoretically sound. This evaluation compares the NWCGS model to other existing acoustic detection models. Recommendations for improvement to the model are also presented. (Author)
