Embodiment 1

[0063] The present invention performs down-sampling processing on low-frequency sub-array signals, taking nested arrays with a relationship of 2 times and a bandwidth of 7 octaves as an example.

[0064] Such as image 3 As shown, in the figure, sub-array No. 1 is the long sub-array of the first octave (the sub-band with the lowest frequency) (corresponding to the lower frequency limit of the sub-band), and No. 2 sub-array is the short sub-array of the first octave. (corresponding to the frequency upper limit of the sub-band); No. 2 sub-array is also the longest sub-array of the second octave, No. 3 sub-array is the short sub-array of the second octave; and so on, No. 7 sub-array is The long sub-array of the seventh octave (the sub-band with the highest frequency), and the No. 8 sub-array is the short sub-array of the seventh octave. The core steps of the nested array-based multi-octave constant beamwidth beamforming method provided by the embodiment of the present invention ...

Embodiment 2

[0074] This embodiment further optimizes the technical means of embodiment 1, specifically: since the algorithm of embodiment 1 adopts down-sampling and up-sampling processing with frequent use of high multiples, up-sampling and up-sampling become the main calculation amount. However, the core of the downsampling and upsampling algorithms is the low-pass filter, because the coefficient of the low-pass filter will increase linearly with the multiple of the upsampling, which will still cause a large amount of calculation in the low frequency band, especially in the In applications with limited computing resources and real-time processing requirements, it is necessary to study more efficient processing algorithms. For this reason, the present invention further carries out as follows to algorithm Figure 4 The improvement shown, that is, the present invention is further replaced by a 2-stage up-down sampling cascade image 3 High-magnification direct up-down sampling in . Taking...

Embodiment 3

[0101] This embodiment further optimizes the technical means of embodiment 1 or embodiment 2, specifically: the present invention uses the tree algorithm structure in multi-sampling rate digital signal processing to further reduce the calculation amount. The specific improvement is: after the low-frequency band signal is band-pass filtered, it is not necessary to directly perform multi-stage 2-fold upsampling. After only one level of 2-fold up-sampling, the signal can be added to the adjacent high-frequency band, and the signal can be doubled. The signal after frequency band combination is up-sampled by 2 times, and then added to the next octave, so progressive, such as Figure 5-a shown. After calculation, the further optimized algorithm reduces the amount of computation for upsampling to Figure 4 19.7% of the calculated amount.

[0102] In short, after the above-mentioned improvements to the existing algorithm, the calculation amount of the multi-octave nested array const...

Abstract

The invention provides a multi-octave identical-beamwidth beam forming method and system based on nesting arrays. The method includes the steps that a sensor array formed by sub-arrays with different bore diameters in a nesting mode receives full spectrum band signals; a length array signal corresponding to each sub-band is used for performing identical-beamwidth processing of the sub-band, the identical-beamwidth beam forming signal in each sub-band is obtained, and the sub-bands are obtained by dividing the whole band of original signals. The identical-beamwidth processing includes the steps that downsampling processing with certain multiplying power is performed on the sub-bands except the sub-band corresponding to the highest frequency according to the highest frequencies corresponding to the sub-bands; upsampling processing with the same multiplying power is performed on the obtained identical-beamwidth beam forming signal of each sub-band; the identical-beamwidth beam forming signals output by all the sub-bands after upsampling processing are synthesized, and therefore the identical-beamwidth beam forming signals with the whole processing bandwidth can be obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of array signal processing, in particular to a nested array-based multi-octave constant beamwidth beamforming method and system. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, using a sensor array with a certain spatial distribution scale to receive signals can obtain spatial processing gain, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the received signal. However, the use of sensor arrays also brings some problems. For example, if the signal frequency band is wide, using a sensor array with fixed spacing and scale for conventional beamforming cannot guarantee a constant beamwidth over the entire frequency band, which will cause the frequency domain of the wideband signal. Distortion, so how to design a wideband constant beamwidth beamforming algorithm becomes an urgent technical problem to be solved. [0003] Currently, state-of-the-art constant beamwidth beamforming algorithms can be implemented in either the f...
