Summary | The goals of this work are varied, but will focus on the assessment of acoustic vector sensor data collection from an autonomous glider platform. Specific goals also include effective demonstrations of tasking the glider to perform data collection runs in various environments, confirming glider performance with acoustic sensor attachment, demonstrating communication performance between gliders equipped with underwater acoustic modems, investigations of standard and adaptive signal processing of acoustic vector sensor data for determining source direction, and evaluation of acoustic vector sensor equipped gliders as ad-hoc range components. The results of the analysis will be used to assess system performance, flow and platform noise limitations, and to aid in the development of future joint, operational scenarios. |
