Description
Unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) threats in a harbor environment present a complex, and in certain ways contradictory, set of detection and classification issues. The threats may come in the form of highly aggressive behaviors with associated kinematics and classification signatures, as well as passive loitering with different kinematics and classification opportunities. <br><br>One obvious modality to consider is mid-to-high frequency active acoustics in the 30-120 kHz range. This modality has a relatively long history of underwater detection and classification of threat divers in a harbor environment. There will be a number of issues with the simple repurposing of existing dive
