Sonar systems are currently used in automobiles or mobile robots. When multiple active sonar systems operate in a small area, ultrasonic interference is a serious problem. In this paper, we propose an ultrasonic multiple access method (UMAM), in order to realize aerial active sonar systems that can operate in an interference environment. From experimental results, the proposed UMAM was shown to be useful for a highly precise measurement in such an interference environment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
