1 Dynamic Ping Optimizatin fr Surveillance in Multistatic Snar Buy Netwrks with Energy Cnstraints Anshu Saksena and I-Jeng Wang Abstract In this paper we study the prblem f dynamic ptimizatin f ping schedule in an active snar buy netwrk deplyed t prvide persistent surveillance f a littral area thrugh multistatic detectin The gal f ping scheduling is t dynamically determine when t ping and which ping surce t engage in rder t achieve the desirable detectin perfrmance Fr applicatins where persistent surveillance is needed fr an extended perid f time it is expected that the energy available at each ping surce is limited relative t the required system lifetime Hence efficient management f pwer cnsumptin fr pinging is imprtant t supprt the required lifetime f the netwrk while maintaining acceptable detectin perfrmance Our apprach t ping ptimizatin is based n the applicatin f apprximate Partially Observable Markv Decisin Prcess (POMDP) techniques such as the rllut algrithm T enable a practical implementatin f the plicy rllut we apply sampling-based techniques based n a simplified mdel that apprximates the detailed multistatic mdel Using high fidelity snar simulatins we evaluate the perfrmance f the prpsed apprach and cmpare it with the greedy technique in terms f detectin perfrmance and system lifetime I INTRODUCTION In this paper we derive a frmulatin f the dynamic ping ptimizatin prblem in multistatic snar buy netwrks using the framewrk f Partially Observable Markv Decisin Prcesses (POMDP) The basic perating cncept f a multistatic snar buy netwrk fr underwater surveillance is t practively ping frm an acustic surce and crrelate the ech returns (specifically time f arrivals and bearings) acrss receivers in the field t detect lcalize and track targets f interest In rder t prvide necessary cverage fr the surveillance area and sufficient diversity in multistatic gemetry fr target lcalizatin multiple receivers and acustic surces are deplyed and distributed thrughut the field The ping ptimizatin prblem cnsidered here is a specific example f sensr management in sensr netwrks which has received significant interest in recent years in generic sensr netwrk settings (see fr example [1] [2] [3]) Our wrk fcuses n the practical applicatin f existing algrithms (in particular the apprximate dynamic prgramming techniques prpsed in [3] [4]) t multistatic snar netwrks where sensing and detectin mdels are mre cmplicated than in settings cnsidered in the literature This wrk was supprted by the ONR Discvery and Inventin Prgram Anshu Saksena is

University Applied Physics Labratry Laurel MD USA i-jengwang@jhuapledu The benefit f ptimizing ping sequences t tracking perfrmance fr multistatic snar systems has been demnstrated thrugh simulatins in [5] where a greedy apprach is presented t ptimize the expected detectin prbability during the search phase when n detectins are cnfirmed and t imprve the track with wrst quality after tracks are established In this paper we fcus n the aspects f ping surce selectin with additinal energy cnstraint during the surveillance phase The surveillance phase is defined as the stage where n specific track with sufficient cnfidence has been established based n the detectin results frm the netwrk f receivers In cntrast t [5] where cmplete absence f cnfirmed detectins is assumed we permit the existence f initial detectins in ur frmulatin The ratinale fr this unique feature is tw-fld: In practical applicatins sparse detectins are expected befre sufficient measurements are available t establish a track (the track initiatin prblem) Furthermre an apprach assuming n detectin has limited applicability since false alarms are inevitable fr mst practical scenaris The separatin f surveillance and tactical (after tracks are established) phases pstulated by existing literature is smewhat artificial In reality bth situatins exist simultaneusly since cntinuing search f new targets is desirable even after tracks are established A frmulatin incrprating detectins during the surveillance phase (such as the ne prpsed here) can likely be extended t address requirements fr bth search and tracking simultaneusly In Sectin II we frmally define all the necessary attributes f a POMDP fr the ping ptimizatin prblem Based n the frmulatin we discuss in Sectin III hw the plicy rllut technique can be applied t sequentially slve fr ping surce selectins by taking a nnmypic view f perfrmance ver a time hrizn int the near future This apprach serves t trade-ff the detectin perfrmance versus energy management requirement We present simulatin results t demnstrate the perfrmance f prpsed algrithms in Sectin IV Thrughut the discussin we assume that there are N s surces and N r receivers deplyed in the field and their psitins are statinary II MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION OF PING OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS We assume a discrete time mdel and use k = t dente the kth stage with 0th stage

3 a(k) is taken Assuming that the initial energy state E(0) is given the state transitin is defined by e i (k) 1 if a(k) = i and e i (k) 1 e i (k + 1) = e i (k) therwise In this simple mdel we assume that the energy cnsumptin fr pinging is deterministic Furthermre we assume that the energy state E(k) is directly bservable (that is can be measured withut errrs) B Belief states and estimatin T apply the POMDP technique we define the belief states and derive a recursin that enables us t estimate the belief states sequentially based n the bservatins Z(k) The belief state is defined as the cnditinal prbability f the states given the infrmatin state (all prir bservatins and actins) that is P X(k) Z(0) Z(1) Z(k 1) a(0) a(k 1)} We dente the belief state by P T (k) = [ P T (x 1 y 1 ; k) P T (x 2 y 2 ; k) P T (x Ng y Ng ; k) ] T where P T (x i y i ; k) dentes the cnditinal prbability f target presence at (x i y i ) at time k given all prir bservatins and actins The belief state P T (k) can be estimated and prpagated sequentially by a tw-step recursin Given the current belief state P T (k): 1) Bayes update: Given an actin a(k) and the resulting bservatin Z(k) cmpute the a psteriri belief state P T Z using Bayes rule P T Z(k) (x i y i ; k) = p d P T p d P T +p fa [1 P T ] if z i (k) = 1 (1 p d )P T [1 p d ]P T +[1 p fa ][1 P T ] therwise where p d p fa and P T have been written instead f p d (x i y i a(k)) p fa (x i y i a(k)) and P T (x i y i ; k) respectively fr readability 2) Diffusin: Prpagate the a psteriri belief state accrding t the transitin mdel P T (x i y i ; k+1) = 1 j ( 1 PT Z(k) (x j y j ; k)p ij ) The fllwing diagram illustrates the prpagatin f belief state: P T (k) a(k) Bayes update Z(k) P T Z(k) (k) diffusin P T (k+1) C Feasible actins and plicies An actin that meets all the cnstraints defined in the prblem is called a feasible actin An bvius cnstraint fr the ping ptimizatin prblem is that the energy level at a surce is sufficient t ping That is a i is feasible nly if e i 1 in ur frmulatin Nte that the feasibility f an actin will depend n the current state P T (k) E(k)} P T (k) E(k) } Candidate Actin a Z 1 (k) Z M (k) Fig 2 State Estimatin Mnte Carl Sampling P 1 T (k+1) P M T (k+1) E 1 (k) E M (k) Base Plicy π! a (k+1) An illustratin f the plicy rllut Q 1 Q M We dente the set f feasible actins at time k by A k 0 N s } A (Markv) plicy π is a mapping frm the states P T (k) E(k)} t an actin a(k) A plicy is feasible if π (P T (k) E(k)) A k fr all k = 0 H 1 Tw typical examples f plicy fr the ping ptimizatin prblem are: Fixed sequence plicies: One can define a feasible plicy by repeating the same sequence f ping decisins as lng as the remaining energy level at a surce is sufficient t ping The rund-rbin algrithm falls under this class f plicies Greedy plicies: The greedy plicy is a plicy that selects a decisin amng the feasible actins by maximizing the immediate reward That is π (P T (k) E(k)) = argmax a Ak E [r(p T (k) E(k) a)] III OPTIMIZATION CRITERIA AND POLICY ROLLOUT A Rewards and dynamic prgramming frmulatin Fr detectin perfrmance we define the reward functin using the average detectin prbability acrss the field: r(p T a) = 1 N g PT α (x i y i )p d (x i y i a) (4) N g i=1 where α 1 is a parameter that allws us t cntrl the search strategy T mdel the energy cnstraint we assume a simplified mdel where each ping surce has a pre-specified number f pings thrughut its lifetime Even thugh we d nt explicitly mdel energy related cnsideratins as part f the reward in POMDP it is expected that the energy cnstraint will play a rle in the perfrmance f POMDP if the selected hrizn is lng enugh relative t the available ping resurces With the reward and cnstraint defined abve we frmulate ping ptimizatin as the fllwing stchastic dynamic prgramming prblem: [ H 1 ] max E r (P T (k) a(k)) (5) a(0)a(h 1);a(k) A k k=0 where r is defined in (4) Fr ur experiments we use the frmulatin (5) in a receding hrizn setting The receding
