Validation and Implementation of Sensor Sweet Spot Selection Algorithms, Phase 1 (Year 1)

Abstract

This Phase I effort was to develop weighting factors that characterize the quality of the WAA sensor's received data at various locations within the sensor's performance envelope. This effort involved extensive reviews and analysis of TECHEVAL and OPEVAL reports and other at-sea recorded data on WAA sensor performance. It has defined a detailed technical approach for locating, collecting, interpreting, formatting and restructuring the data into a Common Database. It also details the iterative relational analysis process utilized to establish predictable Sweet Spot contributors and to assess the positive affects of the resulting Sweet Spot tagged data. It is expected that the output of this research may trigger other Sweet Spot study efforts to dynamically demonstrate the resulting positive effect on contact solution generation capabilities.
