Summary of "signal processing in acoustics and underwater acoustics: Detection, tracking, and classification of unmanned aircraft and underwater vehicles"

Abstract

This paper summarizes the special session, “Detection, Tracking, and Classification of Unmanned Aircraft and Underwater Vehicles,” that took place during the 5th Joint Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America and the Acoustical Society of Japan. The sessions were cosponsored by the Signal Processing in Acoustics and Underwater Acoustics Technical Committees and consisted of nine talks by government and academic researchers from institutions in the United States, Australia and South Korea. The sessions described basic and applied acoustic research to counter the threats from aerial and underwater unmanned platforms.
