Sound Velocity Profile Signal Processing System And Method For Use In Sonar Systems
View pageUS Patent:
56086890, Mar 4, 1997
Filed:
Jun 2, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/460797
Inventors:
William J. Capell - Westwood MA
Assignee:
SeaBeam Instruments Inc. - E. Walpole MA
International Classification:
G01S 1589
US Classification:
367 87
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for calculating a sound velocity or sound velocity error in an ocean, gulf, sea, bay, littoral region, lake, or river at a first locale using a sensing system (for example, a sonar system) having at least one sensor. The technique includes calculating echo time data of a first sounding which is projected in the direction of the first locale at a first angle; calculating first bathymetric data for the first locale using echo time data of the first sounding; calculating echo time data of a second sounding which is projected in the direction of the first locale at a second angle; calculating second bathymetric data for the first locale using echo time data of the second sounding; and calculating sound velocity at the first locale using the first bathymetric data and the echo time data of the first sounding and second bathymetric data and the echo time of the second sounding. The sound velocity error and/or sound velocity may be used to further calculate a sound velocity profile, sound velocity error profile, sound velocity gradient, and sound velocity error gradient. The signal processing unit employs the sound velocity error, sound velocity, sound velocity profile, sound velocity error profile, sound velocity gradient, and/or sound velocity error gradient to "correct" erroneous bathymetric data caused by changes in the sound velocity.

54835003, Jan 9, 1996
Filed:

Appl. No.:
8/167365

Assignee:
SeaBeam Instruments Inc. - East Walpole MA
International Classification:
G01S 380
US Classification:
367119
Abstract:
The present invention is a system and technique for reducing the effective beam width of a receive beam for a sensing system, for example a sonar or radar system. The sensing system includes a plurality of physical sensors each for measuring a receive signal wherein each receive signal includes a first and second data processing unit. The sensing system may include means for computing sensor data for at least one extrapolated-sensor, including, first extrapolation means for computing a first extrapolated-sensor data unit of the at least one extrapolated-sensor by extrapolation of a first data processing unit of the plurality of physical sensors, and second extrapolation means for computing a second extrapolated-sensor data unit of the at least one extrapolated-sensor by extrapolation of a second data processing unit of the plurality of physical sensors. The system may also include means for combining the first and second extrapolated-sensor data units of the at least one extrapolated-sensor to the first and second data processing units of the plurality of physical sensors to thereby generate a narrower effective beam width of a receive beam.
Signal Processing System And Technique For Calculating Roll Bias Data
View pageUS Patent:
56403690, Jun 17, 1997
Filed:
Feb 9, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/599575
Inventors:
William Jack Capell - Westwood MA
Assignee:
Sea Beam Instruments Inc. - East Walpole MA
International Classification:
G01S 1500
US Classification:
367 88
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for calculating roll bias data which is representative of the differences in attitude between an array of sensors of a sensing system on a vessel and an attitude sensing system on the vessel. The attitude sensing system measures the attitude of the vessel in the roll axis. The technique includes measuring first bathymetric data at a first locale at time t. sub. 1 using a first beam projected at the first locale at a substantially 45. degree. angle from the vertical of the array; measuring second bathymetric data at the first locale at a time t. sub. 2 using a second beam projected at substantially the same angle from the vertical of the array as the first beam from the opposite side of the vessel; and calculating roll bias data by comparing the first and second bathymetric data at the first locale. The roll bias data may be used to further calculate a roll bias correction factor. The signal processing apparatus employs the roll bias data and/or roll bias correction factor to compensate, reduce or eliminate erroneous bathymetric data caused by differences in attitude between the array of sensors of the sensing system on the vessel and the attitude sensing system.
