Sonar and Acoustic Impulse Device Synchronization

Abstract

NUCLEAR PHYSICAL SECURITY The Navy’s Waterside Security System (WSS) has a requirement to have multiple sonar sensors operate in confined areas simultaneously. These numerous collocated sonar sensors can lead to interference, thus reducing efficiency. There is a requirement to have a dynamic device control the timing of each sonar transmission. A current device is in its final stage of development and will be deployed in early FY 10. The objective of this effort is to adapt the current synchronization system to include a way to dynamically control the transmission of all acoustic devices that can interfere. These include the WQX tracking sonar, expeditionary acoustic sensors and broadband diver interdiction impulse devices given any geometrical setup.
