An inter-comparison of sediment classification methods based on multi-beam echo-sounder backscatter and sediment natural radioactivity data.
This contribution presents sediment classification results derived from different sources of data collected at the Dordtse Kil river, the Netherlands. The first source is a multi-beam echo-sounder (MBES). The second source is measurements taken with a gamma-ray scintillation detector, i.e., the Multi-Element Detection System for Underwater Sediment Activity (Medusa), towed over the sediments an...
متن کاملSeabed type clustering using single-beam echo sounder time series data
Acoustic seabed characterisation is known to make available very useful information for various marine related applications. Most existing single-beam echo sounder (SBES) classifications require ground truthing in order to have confidence in the final results and sometimes to relate labels to geological features. A statistical feature extraction approach, with an emphasis on quality control, is...
متن کاملSAR Processing of Radar Echo Sounder Data
In 1991, NASA initiated a research program for testing airborne laser and radar altimeters for measuring surface elevation of the Greenland ice sheet in conjunction with a coordinated set of surface measurements for validating and interpreting satellite data sets. In 1993, the airborne program was expanded to include the University of Kansas airborne radio echo sounder for acquiring ice thickne...
متن کاملRiverbed-based Network Modeling for Multi-beam Concurrent Transmissions
The paper presents a Riverbed simulator implementation with both routing and medium access control (MAC) protocols for mobile ad-hoc network wireless networks with multi-beam smart antennas (MBSAs). As one of the latest promising antenna techniques, MBSAs can achieve concurrent transmissions / receptions in multiple directions/beams. Thus it can significantly improve the network throughput. How...
متن کاملHigh-frequency multibeam echo-sounder measurements of seafloor backscatter in shallow water: Part 1 – Data acquisition and processing
Methods for processing multibeam echo-sounder (MBES) bathymetry data are well established, however, there is no universal and established approach to processing and interpretation of MBES backscatter data. The aim of this paper is to (1) detail the different backscatter logging methods implemented in modern high-frequency MBES systems used primarily in shallow water; (2) describe and suggest ap...
