  1. Software architecture for anti-submarine warfare unmanned surface vehicles

    Fahey, Stephen F., Jr.Monterey, CA; Naval Postgraduate School2016

    … U.S. Navy seeks to reduce costs associated with anti-submarine warfare (ASW) operations by exploring the use of unmanned surface vehicles (USVs). Currently, the process of finding submarines tends to be tedious and manpower intensive due to the high volume of acoustic data with limited means to …

  2. Assessing Quantum Magnetometry as an EmergingDetection Modality for Strategic Anti-Submarine Warfare

    Coy, Liam J.Massachusetts Institute of Technology2025

    … to obtain more precise measurements. Nuclear submarines can be detected by the magnetic distortions they cause in the background Earth magnetic field. Quantum magnetometers could enable more precise measurements of such distortions. However, the lack of certainty around the potential for this …

    Privette, Andrew JamieMassachusetts Institute of Technology2012

    … and autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs), are anticipated to play a key role for critical tasks such as mine countermeasures (MCM) and anti-submarine warfare (ASW). Addressing these issues with autonomous systems poses a host of difficult research challenges, including sensing, power, acoustic …

    Nafus, Samuel A.Monterey, CA; Naval Postgraduate School2024

    … an acoustic sensor at depth, in support of anti-submarine warfare operations, filling the same role as a sonobuoy but with added air mobility. It uses a solar array for power production to gain energy independence, but the array degrades cruise flight performance. The addition of horizontal …
