(LW) and Extremely Littoral Water (ELW). A new approach to underwater protection
harbour and task group on the anchorage against AUV, DDV and torpedos is focused on
designed stationary tethered sonobuoys with passive sonar, active multistatic sonar, intercept
sonar and also possibility of jamming intercepted underwater objects. Passive
omnidirectional sonar may be used for initial detection of intruder on the long distance (up to
5 km) and active multistatic sonar will be applied for detection and precise location of
detected object. Intercept sonar is waiting for homing sonar signals generated by AUV, DDS,
torpedos or submarines and received signals are basis generating jamming signals. The
paper describes the WAB, WDDS and magnetic barrier integrated to short range (up to 1000
m) protection systems. The long range (up to 5000 m) sonobuoy – for various technical
parameters and environmental conditions – has been studied.
