This can be further exacerbated by foreground occlusion due to suspended macro particles. Artificial light sources are often used to improve visibility, but using single point light sources, such as spotlights results in captured images with regions of strong backscatter and regions of low signal, negatively affecting conventional underwater image restoration methods. To address these challenges, we introduce a novel scene illumination and scan approach that uses two parallel light emitting diode light strips and a single camera at the center to ensure uniform scene illumination with a defined distribution pattern. We scan and capture scene images in a synthetic aperture imaging fashion, obtaining multiple images with overlapping views and high spatial coherence. Based on the introduced scene illumination and scan approach, we propose a turbidity removal method that uses multiview image information and a defined illumination pattern to estimate backscatter, as well as an occlusion compensation method that takes advantage of spatial coherence among images to remove foreground occlusion. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in restoring visibility of turbid and occluded scenes.","PeriodicalId":13191,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering","volume":"50 3","pages":"1906-1929"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144646057","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research results demonstrate that the process of SBF utilizing interference striations along the horizontal array can exploit phase coherence among signals to achieve beam converging–allowing to form the same directivity for different modes, which can thereby help restore beam resolution and ensure array gain. Furthermore, this paper expands the striation-correlation-based beamforming (SCBF) to utilize array data generated from the cross-correlation of CBF beam output (BO) and array pressure signals (named as SCBF-BO). This SCBF-BO method can eliminate source spectrum and truncation time limitations inherent in SBF applications while maintaining the beam converging capability. Finally, the SCBF-BO algorithm for search of different slope values is proposed. The main-lobe position of SCBF-BO's BO is approximately independent of the striation slope used, but processing along the optimal slope maximizes the convergence gain of SCBF-BO. The slope search of SCBF-BO overcomes the dependence of SBF methods on previously obtaining slope information from the external acoustic intensity image processing. Moreover, the coherent processing of both amplitude and phase enables the slope search of SCBF-BO to achieve the optimal BO performance quickly when the signal-to-noise ratio of the selected BO exceeds 0 dB. Simulation results under Pekeris waveguide and summer thermocline conditions, as well as the synthetic aperture of approximately 959 m horizontal array in the northern Yellow Sea experiment conducted in winter 2011, are provided as illustrations.","PeriodicalId":13191,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering","volume":"50 3","pages":"1718-1739"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144646418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, the ship emits broadband interference used to jam and deceive an enemy ship. The interference creates an extremely strong interference background at the hydrophone close to the ship, thus damaging subsequent localization. Therefore, to localize other nodes, the problem of CW pulse signal reconstruction under strong interference background needs to be solved on a priority basis. Focusing on the signal reconstruction problem under strong interference conditions, this article proposes a parallel convolutional neural network with skip connections. The network mainly consists of a target subnet and an interference subnet. The input to the network contains a CW pulse signal, interference, and background noise. The target subnet is designed to estimate the target component, that is, the CW pulse signal. Additionally, the interference subnet is tasked with estimating the interference component. Ultimately, the acquired target and interference components are used to reconstruct the CW pulse signal of interest. The performance of the proposed network is evaluated using the signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) gain and signal-to-distortion ratio (SDR). According to simulation results, when the input SIR and signal-to-noise ratio are in the range of −8 to 10 dB, the SIR gain and the SDR of our method surpass comparative algorithms. Experimental results show that our network outperforms other benchmark algorithms in reconstructing underwater CW pulse signals with low input SIR. The calculated SIR gain and SDR are 37.80 dB and 6.82 dB, respectively.","PeriodicalId":13191,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering","volume":"50 3","pages":"1740-1759"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144646461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the lack of a systematic large-scale facility for sea–air interaction limits the further development of wind–wave interaction. Therefore, we have designed and developed an extreme wave experimental facility with wind forcing. We performed unidirectional random wave experiments to investigate the wind impact on waves. The results suggest that the effect of wind on wave height distribution is significant. The wave height distribution cannot be well described by the Rayleigh distribution, especially in cases with a large Benjamin–Feir index (BFI). It is worth noting that the case with the largest BFI in the experiment did not increase with the wind forcing as expected. We attempt to provide a possible explanation for this issue by understanding the differences between the facility specification. We consider that the dimensionless length of the tank and the quality of turbulent wind can have a significant impact on wave evolution, especially the probability of extreme events.","PeriodicalId":13191,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering","volume":"50 3","pages":"2016-2029"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144646550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To obtain many long-term time series samples, an in situ suction filtration sampler was proposed, which can wind more than 360 filter membranes with an effective diameter of 60 mm through rollers. A multilayer filter membrane structure was proposed to avoid interactions between filter membranes and seawater. Based on various test results, multilayer filter membrane structures of PET (polyethylene glycol terephthalate, thickness of 0.2 mm)-PES (polyethersulfone, pore size of 0.45 and 1 <italic>μ</i>m) and PET (thickness of 0.2 mm)-PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene, pore size of 0.22 <italic>μ</i>m) were finally selected. These combinations can ensure not only better water-permeability performance but also better strength. Furthermore, based on the data from the water-permeability test of the filtration membranes, the finite element software ANSYS Fluent was used to study the movement and aggregation laws of suspensions in the filtration chamber. The peak concentration in the suspension increases with increasing particle size and decreasing filter membrane pore size. Finally, the device was successfully operated in a 45 MPa high-pressure chamber. Additionally, in sea trials, the sampler successfully obtained an in situ suspension in a methane leakage area.","PeriodicalId":13191,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering","volume":"50 3","pages":"2222-2231"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144646056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
