Design and simulation of UUV-based underwater sensor network vigilance and detection system

Underwater vigilance and detection technology has been paid more and more attention in recent years. The configuration of underwater acoustical sensor network was analyzed and designed, three different network frames were presented. Considering some factors such as economic cost, large number of experiments is impossible to be used to study underwater sonar detection. Then the computer simulation becomes the preferred method. The software of simulation system for underwater vigilance and detection was designed, every sub-module was assigned expected function. Some main sub-modules were analyzed. Simulation results indicate that this system software can stimulate the process of underwater vigilance and detection properly, it has friendly interface and good extension. Then the software can provide theoretic basement for engineering study of underwater vigilance and detection.
