Low Probability of Detection for Underwater Acoustic
Communication Networks
2
Motivation
LPD not LPI !
Applications: Military – “quite” sonar, UWAC Safety & Environment – regulations are dB/Hz
Lack of clear definition – what is LPD? Low SNR? Blend in noise? LPD by who?
Objective: representation of LPD
3
Methods for LPD UWAC Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS):
random phase [Ling:2010] Chaotic sequence [Lei:2011]
OFDM – close bands + slow Tx rate [Leus:2008] Focusing: time reversal [Yang:2008], MIMO [Zhu:2006]

Quality Measures Determine if a comm. System is LPD Alternatives:
We use:
captures target Pd, Pfa of interceptor, and Pe of receiver Not related to Tx power LPD - for each , define Truly covert - , Good LPD -

Sea Trial
Vancouver Island - Saanich Inlet
Vessels: Transmitter – fixed buoy (Ocean Technology Test Bed, UVIC) Receiver – drifting vessel Interceptor– maneuvering vessel
Procedure: Find Tx-Rx range (max s.t. BER = 0) Find Tx-In range (max s.t. detect)
10
Sea Trial - ResultsFc = 40kHz Fc = 30kHz
True LPD is possible!

Summery Channel Effect:
LPD inversely proportional to carrier frequency ( ) LPD better in shallow water ( )
Communication Effect: LPD increases with spreading factor (K), LPD decreases as Tx rate increase LPD inversely proportional to number of symbols (N)
True LPD is possible! (validated in sea trial)
Thank you!
