Problems solved by technology

However, the ESPRIT algorithm assumes that the propagation speed of the signal in the medium is constant, and does not consider the influence of the speed on the algorithm results. When the speed changes greatly and is uncertain, it is easy to generate a large error, which greatly reduces the accuracy of target positioning. Accuracy

Abstract

The invention discloses an orthogonal uniform linear array-based underwater direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation method and system. The estimation system comprises a data acquiring, processing and controlling module, an emitting module, a receiving module, an outputting module and a power module. In the receiving module, ultrasonic receiving probe arrays are orthogonal uniform linear arrays. Each array comprises the same number of ultrasonic receiving probes. The invention realizes accurate target positioning when the propagation speed of the sound wave under water is uncertain, improves the ESPRIT algorithm, eliminates the sound speed in the algorithm and makes the final estimation result independent of the sound speed. In this way, the effect of uncertain sound speed on DOA is eliminated, achieving relatively high practicability. In addition, it is possible to carry out measurement in different underwater acoustic environments, and underwater target positioning is relatively accurate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of target positioning, in particular to an underwater direction-of-arrival estimation method and system based on an orthogonal uniform linear array. Background technique [0002] Direction of Arrival (abbreviation: DOA) estimation of space signals is an important problem in the study of array signal processing. The so-called array signal processing refers to placing multiple sensors at different positions in space to form an array, and using the array to receive and process space signals, the purpose is to suppress useless interference and noise, and extract useful signal features or information. DOA estimation uses this processing method to estimate the incident angle of the signal. [0003] The existing DOA estimation methods mainly include beamforming method, high resolution spectrum estimation method, subspace fitting algorithm and subspace decomposition algorithm. First, the beamforming method extends...
