Abstract
The simulation of an underwater vehicle track has been used to develop reference
distributions for displacement and orientation corrections to the test range sensor
arrays. These distributions show unusual behavior. Of particular concern are the
scatter plots of the magnitude of displacement and orientation rotation angle, which
exhibit a "hairpin" shape. The mechanisms producing this shape are interpreted and
data transformations are developed that produce scatter plots of more regular form.
In addition, some plotting methods are applied to provide some visual information
about the joint distribution of the transformed data.
