Method And System For In-Air Ultrasonic Acoustical Detection And Characterization
US Patent:
6987707, Jan 17, 2006
Filed:
Nov 12, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/712805

Assignee:
General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems, Inc. - Arlington VA
International Classification:
G01S 15/04
G01S 15/06
G01S 15/06
US Classification:
367 99, 367 87
Abstract:
A system and method are presented for determining the detection and location of persons and objects using ultrasonic acoustic sensors. The system allows detection of stationary and moving persons and other objects, through atmospheric conditions, to a distance of at least 300 feet. The invention further provides for enhanced signal processing through the use of arrays of transmitters and receivers, where one or more transmitter arrays may be oriented substantially perpendicularly to one or more receiver arrays, allowing high directionality and good rejection of reverberations, background noise, clutter and objects not of interest.
Channel Adaptive Active Sonar
US Patent:
4933914, Jun 12, 1990
Filed:
Jan 15, 1987
Appl. No.:
7/003529
Inventors:
Paul L. Feintuch - Covina CA
Francis A. Reed - Yorba Linda CA
Francis A. Reed - Yorba Linda CA
Assignee:
Hughes Aircraft Company - Los Angeles CA
International Classification:
G01S 966
US Classification:
367 87
Abstract:
A channel adaptive active sonar is disclosed, wherein the sonar transmit waveform is adaptively selected in accordance with the measured sonar channel scattering function to reduce the response of the sonar to unwanted reverberation while preserving the response to signal returns. As a result, the sonar target detectability is improved over sonar systems which do not adapt to the variable properties of the ocean channel. The sonar is operable in two modes, the channel measurement mode and the normal active mode. In the channel measurement mode, probe signals are transmitted to test the channel response. From the sonar receive signals resulting from the transmitted probe signals, the channel scattering function is estimated. The transmit waveform for the sonar active mode is then designed to provide a waveform whose ambiguity function overlaps minimally with the estimated channel scattering function. As a result of the waveform selection, the sonar resonse to reverberation is reduced while maintaining the sonar target response.
