Multi-Ship Sonar Bistatic Automatic Active Localization:
2021 November
THE CHALLENGE
The Navy has an interest in applying state-of-the-art cutting-edge digital technologies to improve shipboard wide-band receiver systems performances in high electromagnetic interference (EMI) environments aiming to build a single-unit multi-channel phase-coherent all-digital receiver system. To achieve bi-static reception benefits, each receiver needs some information about the remote source. Providing source information through the Navy's communications implementation framework will allow combatants to coordinate strike group active multi-ship operations to both avoid mutual interference and exploit echoes from other combatants' active emissions.
