2 Contents Purpose and Objective Past and Present Thesis Summaries MODAS Introduction & Field Comparison WAPP Introduction & Processing Analysis of Output Conclusions and Recommendations
3 Purpose To define Navy altimeter requirements as a minimum number of satellite altimeters necessary to ensure maximum weapon effectiveness To determine the point at which additional altimeter input no longer increases weapon effectiveness NUWC Collaboration elements NAVO NPS SPAWAR NRL
4 Objective Identify the sensitivity of satellite altimetry data assimilation on weapon presets To determine if further work should be done to assess the value of the altimetry data
5 Past Thesis Michael Perry, June 23 GDEM vs MODAS with 3 altimeters March 15, vs 1633 profiles N W Area coverage is an effective metric for comparing weapon presets
6 Future Projects Recommended by Past Thesis More Extensive Data Set Observe changes over time and for different locations Examine areas of strong thermal or salinity contrast Altimeter Investigation Vary the number of altimeters and observe the effect on area coverage Determine optimal number of altimeters required
7 Current Thesis Compared WAPP output using 2 MODAS fields Looked at 3 geographic areas at 2 different times of year Used relative difference in area coverage for quantifying the effect on weapon presets
8 Process Flowchart Satellite SST & SSH MODAS WAPP Presets Satellite SST only Presets Relative Difference
9 Modular Ocean Data Assimilation System (MODAS) Analysis tool only, predictive capability using NCOM Dynamic climatology uses optimum interpolation to ingest SSH and SST from satellites In situ measurements (XBTs, CTDs) Produces 3-D Temp grid up to 1/8 degree resolution using surface-subsurface regressions 3-D Sal grid using T-S regressions Derives density, sound speed, mixed layer depth, etc.

12 MODAS Fields 2 daily global MODAS fields June 3, 21 October 1, 21 2 versions one with assimilated data from 3 altimeters (TOPEX, GFO, and ERS-2) one without altimeter data assimilated
13 Areas of Investigation 3 geographic areas (5 X 5 degree boxes) Sea of Japan (SOJ) 35-4N, E East China Sea (ECS) 3-35N, E Kuroshio Current Area (KCA) 3-35N, E 6 cases (2 days X 3 areas) Resulting input data set Latitude (N) ECS SOJ KCA Longitude (E) 4,379 pairs of water column profiles for each day

16 Weapon Acoustic Preset Program (WAPP) Naval Undersea Warfare Center, Division Newport Generates Mk 48 torpedo acoustic presets Visualize predicted torpedo performance
17 WAPP Composition Graphical user interface (GUI) Entering of environmental, tactical, target, and weapon data Computational engine Generating acoustic performance predictions Output A ranked listset Acoustic ray traces Signal excess maps
18 Environmental Data Entry Water column parameters T, S, Sound Spd, VSS Surface conditions WS, WH, Sea State Bottom conditions Depth, type (EDE) Window
19 Presetting Process Various input data Establish valid SD/SA combinations SA selection algorithm Ray trace and signal excess map Ranking based on LD, ER Recommendation SA selection algorithm Identifies optimal pitch angle for each search depth Ray trace Range-independent ray propagation model accounts for spreading, refraction, volume absorption, boundary interactions Fan of rays bound torpedo beam pattern Signal excess map Uses monostatic, active sonar equation (reverb limited): SL - 2TL + TS RL DT = SE
20 WAPP Ranked Listset Listset of search depth/pitch angle/laminar distance/effectiveness Listset ranked based on acoustic effectiveness (area coverage) and recommendation made accounting for cavitation and depth separation
21 Ray Trace Display
22 Signal Excess Map
23 Generated Output NUWC routine fed MODAS T,S fields into WAPP grid point by grid point (bypassing EDE) 5 tactical scenarios run for each case: ASW with low Doppler, deep target ASW with high Doppler, deep target ASW with low Doppler, shallow target ASUW with low Doppler target ASUW with high Doppler target 3 scenarios (6 cases X 5 tactics) Presetting process repeated for each grid point in each scenario over 43, listset pairs!
24 Analysis of Output Used a statistical software package to compare listsets Used relative difference (RD) in area coverage Area coverage (AC) Fraction of the search region with signal excess greater db (i.e., better than a 5% p(d)) RD = AC1-AC2 AC1 Only considered different SD/SA combinations chosen by WAPP Generated a histogram for each scenario Shows the number of combinations that fall into set RD ranges Calculated mean RDs, Prob(RD>.1) and Prob(RD>.2)

37 Conclusions WAPP output is sensitive to satellite altimetry data assimilation Especially when MODAS fields differ significantly in the depth zone of interest (due to better depiction of mesoscale features by the field with altimetry) Satellite altimeter data contributed as much as an 8-9% chance of having a different engagement outcome Assuming RD of.1-.2 in AC is enough
38 Recommendations Proceed with the next step Value is related to positive affect on outcome (hit versus miss) Perform a study that compares WAPP output using MODAS fields and in situ measurements Ultimate MODAS verification To correlate satellite data value to predicted real world performance Perform hardware-in-the-loop simulations To compare hit-miss ratios using presets generated in above experiment for MODAS fields and reality Vary the number of altimeters assimilated To answer the how many are required question
39 Recommended Future Work PART 1 PART 2 Satellite SST & SSH MODAS WAPP Presets Hardwarein-the-loop simulations Hitmiss ratio Satellite SST only Presets Hitmiss ratio In situ obs Presets Hitmiss ratio
