Abstract:Acoustic detection and tracking of small (swimmer-size) targets while minimizing the incidents of false alerts can be challenging in a shallow, multipath, high-clutter harbor environment. One common problem involves track intermittency where periods or locations of high clutter or multipath interference inhibit detection and cause tracks to fail and restart. This paper describes the results of applying track segment association and related algorithms from airborne and ground radar applications [e.g., Zhang and… Show more
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.
