Colored Background Noise

by

Prof. Roberto Cristi

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering

Naval Postgraduate School

Monterey, CA 93943

September 21, 1999

Long Term Goals of our Research:

• Study existing techniques (or develop new ones) to detect short transients in the ocean;

• Develop a visual interface to help the operator(s) in detecting transients;

• Determine suitable techniques for automatic classification.

Short Signals: from mine laying activities, such as splashes, chain unrolling, mines hitting the bottom of the ocean;

Colored Background Noise: from different sources, namely engine of the boat laying the mines.
