Adaptive rapid environmental assessment system simulation framework

Adaptive Rapid Environmental Assessment (AREA) is a new concept for minimizing the non model-based sonar performance prediction uncertainty and improving the model-based sonar performance by adaptive and rapid in situ measurement in the ocean environment. In this thesis, a possible structure of the AREA system has been developed; an AREA System Simulation Framework has been constructed using C++, which can simulate how AREA system will work and be utilized to determine the optimal or sub-optimal sampling strategies. A user's manual for the simulation framework, and specifications of all important C++ classes are included.
