Determining the distances from the hull of the own ship to obstacles or land, i.e. water clearance, is a fundamental task in navigation. This is particularly relevant during maneuvering in the harbor or navigating in confined waters. We introduce the concepts of area water clearance and line water c…
Reliable monitoring of vessel motions is crucial for safe and efficient operation of marine vessels. Pitching and rolling motions are commonly monitored using high-grade inertial measurement units (IMUs). However, such sensors become unreliable in presence of long-lasting accelerations. In this work…
Radar odometry may provide valuable input for surface vessels in several marine applications. The vulnerability of global positioning satellite systems to jamming and spoofing motivates the search for alternatives. In this work, we investigate the feasibility of W-band frequency modulated continuous…
