Proceedings ArticleDOI
Magnetic Guidance of Autonomous Vehicles
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed an adaptive search technique to locate the center of the magnetic anomaly to within several feet using a scalar magnetometer whose outputs are successively subtracted along the path of sensor motion to form an approximation to the spatial gradient of the sensor's output.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Current and Future Underwater Magnetic Sensing
TL;DR: In this article, a summary review of underwater magnetic sensing with regard to present practice, new developments, and predicted future practice is provided, including target tracking, classification, and homing systems.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Harmonic Mean Sound Speed is Adequate for Transponder Navigation
TL;DR: In this paper, the effective source-to-transponder sound speed was computed for underwater acoustic transponder navigation using simple harmonic mean sound speed calculations with acceptable accuracy for many ocean engineering applications.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Magnetic loops as submarine detectors
TL;DR: In this article, an analysis is given of shallow water submarine detection by a buried magnetic loop and the submarine signal and interfering geomagnetic, ocean wave, and thermal noise are included in a simple, flexible detection range model.
