How Unmanned Underwater Vehicles
Could Become Easier to Detect
E
Detecting the presence of an unmanned under-
water vehicle is usually achieved by intercept-
ing the noise radiated by its propeller. In a noisy

tic signature of a UUV and the noise in the local
environment oen present too much signal
complexity for current technologies to process.
