Om dit proces van afhandelen en verhelpen van storingen goed te kunnen volgen, meten en waar nodig bij te sturen vanuit de Afdeling Service & Support, dus …

The authors investigate performance of sensor selection schemes in a target tracking scenario. In current NLDA research on air and surface picture compilation with a network of naval radar systems a sensor selection approach is based on the Particle Filter target tracking technique and a minimisation …

This paper discusses the principle of geoacoustic inversion. That will demonstrate the need for validation with experimental data. The RNLNC has been involved in two recent sea trials that will be described in brief. Results for the geoacoustic parameter characterization for typical examples will be …

The author investigates how acoustic information about the seabed can be obtained from bottom-reflected shipping noise. An innovative idea is the use of sound sources of opportunity. When expeditionary forces enter shallow or confined waters, the environment has a great influence on the performance of …

It is well-known that instead of changing course exactly at the edge, changing course when the sweep radius reaches the edge (i.e. changing course at distance R from the edge) generally yields higher probabilities of detection. In this article the authors shall investigate whether or not an even higher …

This paper describes segmentation based on motion. A group of (connected) pixels that move together is assumed to belong to one object. One advantage of using otion is that an object that consists of different parts is detected as one object, whereas f for instance colour differences are used the same …

Information dominance and superiority and network centric warfare are terms that have become part of the lexicon associated with the transformation of the military force in the 21st century. Also well-known are the four tenets of network centric warfare: 1. Arobustly networked force improves information …

Military sensors are being used to create situational awareness. In a process of multi sensor data fusion, a sensor grid containing a multitude of similar and different sensor types contributes to the overall awareness by gathering and combining input data. Such data fusion has been applied in numerous …

Paper that summarises and to discuses trends in research on interceptor guidance laws for fast-flying and/or agile air targets. The authors will present an analysis of the implications of these trends on the missile performance and in particular the robustness of the end-game guidance in military operations. …

In this paper the authors describe the iTasks workflow system. The iTasks system is a software library written in the declarative programming language Clean, which allows for the highlevel specification of multi-user workflows. An important advantage of the iTasks system above commercially available …
