Gauging Training Effectiveness of Virtual Environment Simulation Based Applications for an Infantry Soldier Training Task
… is seeking to expand its application of virtual environment training to areas such as cultural awareness and human network analysis for the infantry soldier. These new expanded applications will require a higher level of non-determinant behavior inside the virtual environment. To meet more of the …

A matched field processing approach to long range acoustic navigation
This thesis presents the design and simulation of an acoustic listen-only navigation system for use in a time-varying high-multipath environment. The system uses a ray tracing model of sound propagation in a horizontally stratified ocean to associate each multipath arrival with a particular ray …
