Uncertainties and Interdisciplinary Transfers Through the End-to-End System (UNITES): Capturing Uncertainty in the Common Tactical Environmental Picture
نویسنده
چکیده
UNITES is a unique, interdisciplinary team with expertise spanning the environment (physical oceanography and bottom geology), ocean acoustics (propagation, ambient noise, reverberation and signal processing), and tactical sonar systems. The overall goals of the research are to enhance the understanding of the uncertainty in the ocean environment (including the sea bottom), characterize its impact on sonar system performance, and provide the Navy with guidance for understanding sonar system performance uncertainty in the littoral.

Uncertainties and Interdisciplinary Transfers Through the End-To-End System (UNITES)
The overall goals of this research are: 1. To define and characterize the variabilities and uncertainties in the components and linkages of the general physical-geo-acoustical system relevant to the support of naval operations. 2. To transfer quantitatively the spatial-temporal environmental variabilities and uncertainties through the interdisciplinary system, including coupled interactions, in...
متن کاملTransfer of Uncertainties through Physical-acoustical-sonar End-to-end Systems: a Conceptual Basis
An interdisciplinary team of scientists is collaborating to enhance the understanding of the uncertainty in the ocean environment, including the sea bottom, and characterize its impact on tactical system performance. To accomplish these goals quantitatively an end-to-end system approach is necessary. The conceptual basis of this approach and the framework of the end-to-end system, including its...
متن کاملTask-space Control of Electrically Driven Robots
Actuators of robot operate in the joint-space while the end-effect or of robot is controlled in the task-space. Therefore, designing a control system for a robotic system in the task-space requires the jacobian matrix information for transforming joint-space to task-space, which suffers from uncertainties. This paper deals with the robust task-space control of electrically driven robot manipula...
متن کاملCapturing Uncertainty in the Common Tactical/Environmental Picture: NRL/Stennis Contributions
NRL-SSC is providing the best ground truth sound speed profile and geo-acoustic data possible for the geographic area selected for analysis. Initially, the sound speed and uncertainty were provided by the Modular Ocean Data Assimilation System (MODAS) and extractions from a global implementation of the Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM). Models such as NCOM include atmospheric forcing effects and ...
متن کاملQuantifying, predicting, and exploiting uncertainties in marine environments
Following the scientific, technical, and field trial initiatives ongoing since the Maritime Rapid Environmental Assessment (MREA) conferences in 2003, 2004, and 2007, the MREA10 conference provided a timely opportunity to review the progress on various aspects of MREA, with a particular emphasis on marine environmental uncertainty management. A key objective of the conference was to review the ...
