Abstract

The invention discloses a horizontal array motion aperture synthesis positioning method and a device therefore. The horizontal array motion aperture synthesis positioning method comprises: decomposing the underwater acoustic data collected by the array elements of a horizontal array into a plurality of time units; evaluating the phases of each narrowband time unit laminated spatially between the array elements, to obtain a phase evaluation factor, processing time delay sampling and phase compensation on the array element time units; processing aperture synthesis for the time sequence obtained by different array elements in one narrow band, to form a large aperture virtual horizontal array; according to zero point control full normal mode filter theory, processing zero point control mode filtration on the large aperture virtual horizontal array, to obtain target mode information; using the target mode information to obtain three-dimension positioning result of the target according to maximum likelihood method. The method and device can obtain high positioning accuracy, with simple and practical process. The invention can realize real-time application without much additional computing resource.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sonar for underwater unmanned submersibles, in particular to a method and device for positioning by using side horizontal array and movement aperture synthesis. Background technique [0002] Long-range three-dimensional positioning of targets is an important technical problem in the field of underwater acoustic detection technology. For linear arrays, ordinary beamforming methods cannot be used for depth determination, but methods that can be used for depth determination, such as the matched field method, mostly use vertical arrays. For horizontal arrays, since the positioning accuracy is proportional to the spatial scale length of the horizontal array, a larger horizontal aperture scale is often required to ensure accurate three-dimensional positioning. However, for a small carrier such as an underwater unmanned submersible, its length is often only a few meters, so the physical aperture of the side hor...
