수온의 단주기 변동이 있는 동해에서의 정합장처리 실험 : MAPLE 0310 = Matched Field Processing Experiment in the East Sea of Korea Characterized by Short Period Fluctuating Temperature: MAPLE 0310

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Detection and localization of a quiet target in shallow water environments is a challenging problem because of the complicated acoustic Propagation and the Prevalence of loud surface ship interference. Matched Field Processing (MFP) can help address the concern by using a Propagation model to determine the steering vectors, thus Providing optimal away gain and localization accuracy. However, Performance of MFP have yet realized in practice, for several reasons. The most important limitation is that precise information on the underwater environments is generally not available. To examine the Performance of MFP in the East Sea of Korea, we have accomplished a series of matched acoustic Properties and localization experiment (MAPLE). We analyzed the array data measured from MAPLE which is accomplished using a vertical line array and a towed acoustic source off the east cost of Korea in Oct. 2003. We localized the acoustic source using MFP. It is well known that the temperature structure in the experimental site is affected by the short period fluctuation such as internal wave. In this paper, it is found that the sidelobe level on the MFP ambiguity surface is increased being affected by the short period fluctuation.
