Modeling and Analyzing the Propagation from Environmental through Sonar Performance Prediction
Abstract
Central to the long term goals of this joint project is to understand the physics of the propagation of uncertainty through the interfaces between oceanography, acoustics, array processing and performance prediction. We will develop an efficient overall simulation platform that combines all of the components of the baseline (mean) and uncertainty problem: Oceanography through 4-D acoustic field prediction. The development of a methodology to distill the complexity and uncertainty of the ocean acoustic environment and the system level sensitivities to relevant situational awareness for the operator is an important goal of this research. This project is a joint effort as summarized in the team report. Below we concentrate on the SIO effort. A substantive part of the SIO effort is a joint research program with the SAIC component involving the application of the adjoint methodology to ocean-acoustics. This part of the effort is contained in the SAIC report.
