TASS(Towed Array Sonar System) is a sonar system which tows the sensor array behind a platform. Array shape is generally assumed to be a straight line. But the array shape is often distorted by oceanic current or platform maneuvering which causes the performance loss of signal processing method like beamforming. So array shape estimation methods are needed. Typically the method based on Kalman filter using heading sensor is used. In practice, the measurement is corrupted by biases which are caused by rotation of the tow cable, varying magnetic fields and slowly varying stresses in the mechanical construction. Although they can't be calibrated but can be estimated. In this paper, we suggest the array shape estimation method based on Kalman filter compensating the sensor biases.

비동기 양상태 소나는 음원 방향에서 수신되는 직접파를 탐지하고 직접파가 수신된 시간을 추정하여 반사파의 거리를 산출한다. 따라서 동기식에 비해 직접파 수신 시간 추정 오차가 표적 거리 추정 오차에 더하여 나타난다. 특히, 직접파는 다중경로 신호에 의해 정합필터 출력이 여러 개의 첨두치로 나타나는데 문턱치를 넘는 첫 번째 첨두치로 직접파 도달시간을 추정하는 기법과 가장 큰 첨두치로 직접파 도달시간을 추정하는 기법에 대하여 분석하였다. 실험은 공간적으로 분리된 음원과 해저에 매설된 선배열 수신센서로 구성된 양상태 소나를 이용하여 모의 반향기에서 반향되는 유사 표적 신호를 획득하는 방식으로 진행되었다. 실험결과 첫 번째 첨두치로 직접파 도달시간을 추정하는 기법이 표적 거리 추정 오차가 더 작은 것을 확인하였다. 도출된 결과는 비동기 양상태 소나의 표적 추적 기법에 활용할 예정이다.

In this study, an improved method of setting the RAM goals for surveillance system using OMS/MP and field operations data of similar systems is suggested and a case study of surveillance system A is given. Newly suggested methods for setting the RAM goals consist of the procedures such as On/Off time analysis of configuration equipment based on OMS/MP, field operations data analysis of similar systems, adjustment of preventive maintenance time, the number of corrective maintenances, and TALDT in wartime, introducing new subsystem to reliability structure of surveillance system, and reflecting expert's opinion. A case study of surveillance system A shows that newly suggested method in this study for setting the RAM goals is reasonably acceptable and practically applicable to other similar systems.

Multi-target away signal simulator which can simulate the radiated noises of maneuvering targets in a specified ocean range is an essential equipment for the validation of developed towed array sonar system. This simulator should provide realistic multi-channel signals those are required for beamforming on the signal processing unit of towed away system. This paper describes the overall system configuration and signal synthesis techniques for the target radiated noise. And this paper considers why the time delays between target and individual sensors are caused and how to compensate these time delays to individual sensors output. This multi-purpose target simulator could be used for the training of TASS operators.

능동소나 시스템에서 표적신호의 근거리 정보가 중요해짐에 따라, 표적 음향산란 신호의 고유한 특성을 분석하기 위해 실험적인 방법과 시뮬레이션 기법이 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 표적신호 합성을 위해 축소표적 반향실험을 수행하였고. 자료의 분석 결과 축소표적의 음향산란은 거울면 반사의 영향이 큰 것으로 분석되어, 표적신호 합성에서 기하광학이론을 응용하였다. 복잡한 형태의 표적을 여러 표본형상으로 분리하고, 각 표본형상의 기여도를 신호의 위상과 강도를 줌으로써 계산하였으며, 표적신호 합성모델의 검증을 위해 실제 축소표적 실험 결과와 비교하였다.

Purpose: In this study, a reliability prediction based reliability growth management is suggested especially for the early development phase of a system and the case study of surveillance system is given. Methods: The proposed reliability prediction based reliability growth management procedures consists of 7 Steps. In Step 1, the stages for reliability growth management are classified according to the major design changes. From Step 2 to Step 5, system reliability is predicted based on reliability structures and the predicted reliabilities of subsystems (Level 2) and modules (Level 3). At each stage, by comparing the predicted system reliability with that of the previous stage, the reliability growth of the system is checked in Step 6. In Step 7, when the predicted value of sustem reliability does not satisfy the reliability goal, some design alternatives are considered and suggested to improve the system reliability. Results: The proposed reliability prediction based reliability growth management can be an efficient alternative for managing reliability growth of a system in its early development phase. The case study shows that it is applicable to weapon system such as a surveillance system. Conclusion: In this study, the procedures for a reliability prediction based reliability growth management are proposed to satisfy the reliability goal of the system efficiently. And it is expected that the use of the proposed procedures would reduce, in the test and evaluation phase, the number of corrective actions and its cost as well.

The indoor noise of the naval vessel is very important related to the optimum environmental conditions for crews as well as the ability of fighting power of antisubmarine. Especially, sonar equipment room is one of the rooms where require to be silent because the informations of the underwater noise are collected and analyzed in there. In this paper, the sound reduction of the TASS console, one of the main noise sources in a sonar equipment room for a typical naval vessel, is described. The noise source of this TASS console is the flowing noise of cooling fan. In order to reduce this kind of noise, the plenum chamber and acoustic elbow were developed. Related to the development of the plenum chamber, the area of the air-outlet and sound absorption of the inner lining were investigated experimentally with the evaluation system of the sound insertion loss. Acoustic elbow was also manufactured and evaluated with the evaluation system of the sound insertion loss. Finally, in order to evaluated the ability of noise reduction of the plenum chamber and acoustic elbow, the indoor noise of the sonar equipment was measured when they were appled to TASS console.

잠수함 정숙화 추세와 복잡한 해양 환경으로 대잠수함전에서 미약한 표적신호를 지속적으로 탐지하기 매우 어려워지고 있어 소나 운용자가 장시간 지속적으로 전방위 표적 탐색하는 부담이 매우 크므로 표적 자동탐지 추적 기능이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 장거리 예인 수동소나에 적합한 표적의 자동 탐지 및 추적기법을 제안하고 시뮬레이션과 실제 해상 환경에서 수중 표적신호로 성능을 검증하였다.

The fish influx and behavioral properties at a set-net off Goseong, South Korea were investigated using an imaging sonar. As a result, the average influx of fish was 33.9% at day time and 66.1% at night time, respectively, which indicated that a majority of fish entered into a playground in the set-net at night. The fish behavioral properties such as target (fish) length, range, orientation and major-axis angle were examined and compared among survey dates (4, 5, and 6 June 2019) using the statistical analysis tool (analysis of variance, ANOVA). The behavioral properties presented differently sometime of survey dates. This is preparatory study to support fish behavior properties in a set-net. It is expected that more elaborated behavioral information of fishes in the set-net is beneficial for designing and deploying a set-net fishing gear as well as general fish behavior research in the future.

SMS 960(Seafloor Mapping System) Side Scan Sonar에 자기테이프기록계 (Kennedy 900)를 연결하여 해저면 탐사자료를 수치적으로 처리할 수 있는 시스템을 개발, 이를 제주도 성산포 근해에서 시험적으로 적용하여 그 결과를 검토 하였다. 처리시스템은 주로 VAX 11/780 (4MB)를 사용하여 FORTRAN-77로 작성 되었으며 자료의 변환, 보정, 수치분석 및 도면제작 (cartography)을 주요기능으로 가지고 있다. SMS960에 의해 얻어진 수치자료는 특수한 형태를 가지고 있으므로 독자적으로 제작한 자료선별 계수기(Data Selecting Counter와 개인용 컴퓨터 personar computer을 사용하여 주처리 전산시스템에서 처리할 수 있도록 그 형태를 변환시켰으며, 경사거리(slant range)의 보정과 자료의 질적 개선을 위한 전처리 과 정을 거친 다음, 색상표현 으로 해저면 영상도면을 제작하였다. 후방산란 (backscattering) 음파자료를 통계처리하여 4가지 색상으로 제작된 영상도면을, 해저 퇴적물의 물성분포도와 비교해 본 결과 주로 평균입도와 분급도에 잘 대비되었다. 따라서 Side Scan Sonar에 의한 해저면 후 방상란 음향특성을 적절히 분석하므로 써 해저퇴적물의 퇴적상분포연구에 상당한 응용 효과가 있을 것으로 판단된다.
