Source summary
Develop a rugged optical-fibre distributed-acoustic-sensing cable system for underwater and seabed event monitoring. The required system includes AI or ML classification and interpretation, automatic time-stamped alerts with target class and confidence, a ground control station for near-real-time communication, associated hardware and software, and interfaces to designated Indian Navy networks and target databases. Exact surveillance ranges and target-reporting fields are intentionally omitted.
