Search parameter optimization for discrete, Bayesian, and continuous search algorithms
Kalkwarf, Benjamin (Monterey, California: Naval Postgraduate School, 2017-09);Search and Detection Theory is the overarching field of study that covers many scenarios. These range from simple search and rescue acts to prosecuting aerial/surface/submersible targets on mission. This research looks at ... -
Passive and active sonar prosecution of diesel submarines by nuclear submarines
Nelson, Erik J. (Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-03);This study analyses the trend for initial detection times using both passive and active sonar during submarine-on-submarine operations. Specifically, it simulates a nuclear powered submarine (SSN) searching for a diesel ... -
