Ambient sea noise elimination method and apparatus
TL;DR: In this article, the outputs of a directional hydrophone and an omnidirectional hydrophone are filtered and summed such that the effective receiving pattern below approximately 300 Hz is a vertically oriented dipole pattern having a null in the horizontal direction and a cardioid having its null either pointing upwardly or pointing downwardly in a vertical direction.
PatentDOI
Range determining system
TL;DR: In this article, a vertical dipole beam and a narrow uni-directional horizontal beam are used to discriminate long range targets from short range targets by generating a vertical and a horizontal beam.
PatentDOI
Element-sited beamformer
TL;DR: In this paper, a beamforming system was proposed for a horizontal line array with an element-sited beamformer, which is coupled to an array cable of a HAP.
PatentDOI
Laser sound detector
TL;DR: In this article, a neutrally buoyant reflector (20) is deployed underwater, and a laser (12) disposed at a remote location aims coherent light at the reflector.
