Abstract

For several years, the engineers of the Oceanographic Systems Laboratory have been developing a version of the REMUS autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) equipped with a Marine Sonics, Ltd. sidescan sonar. A sidescan equipped AUV allows operators to maintain a safe standoff distance from a potential minefield, and when equipped with other instrumentation provides high resolution hydrographic data as well. This paper provides a general discussion of sidescan search strategies as pertains to mine-hunting. It also describes the hardware and software interface from the vehicle and user interface to the sidescan system that allows pre-launch performance verification, and rapid post mission data analysis and exporting. results of this test are discussed and explained, including a variety of performance metrics. A practical example is provided. During August of 2000, the REMUS system participated in the US Navy exercise, "Fleet Battle Experiment-Hotel" and generated a high resolution map of a minefield covering over 3 square kilometers. The results of this test are discussed and explained, including a variety of performance metrics.

使用REMUS AUV的极浅水水雷对抗:一种产生准确结果的实用方法

几年来，海洋系统实验室的工程师们一直在开发一种配备了Marine Sonics, Ltd.侧扫描声纳的REMUS自主水下航行器(AUV)。配备侧扫描的AUV可以让作业人员与潜在的雷区保持安全的距离，当配备其他仪器时，还可以提供高分辨率的水文数据。本文对侧扫描搜索策略在寻雷中的应用进行了一般性的讨论。它还描述了从飞行器和用户界面到侧面扫描系统的硬件和软件接口，该系统允许发射前的性能验证，以及任务后的快速数据分析和导出。讨论和解释了该测试的结果，包括各种性能指标。给出了一个实际的例子。2000年8月，REMUS系统参加了美国海军“舰队作战实验-酒店”演习，生成了覆盖面积超过3平方公里的高分辨率雷区地图。讨论和解释了该测试的结果，包括各种性能指标。
