Abstract

The invention discloses an underwater DOA estimation method based on a noncircular signal and an adjustable-included-angle array and a device thereof. According to the estimating device, an adjustable-included-angle two-dimensional array is adopted in a receiving module. The array can perform flexible measurement. Through changing the included angle between the two-dimensional arrays and performing multiple measurements, a purpose of improving estimation performance can be realized. For overcoming a problem of signal attenuation in an underwater acoustic environment, a noncircular signal is applied to underwater DOA estimation, and an NC-ESPRIT algorithm based on the noncircular signal is utilized for improving estimation performance. For eliminating an estimation error caused by sound speed influence, a one-dimensional DOA estimation expression which is unrelated with the sound speed is utilized, thereby improving underwater DOA estimation precision. In one word, the adjustable-included-angle two-dimensional uniform array is utilized, and furthermore the advantage of noncircular signal is utilized; optimization which is unrelated with the sound speed is performed according to theunderwater environment. The underwater DOA estimation method and the device thereof have advantages of high estimation precision and relatively high practicability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of target positioning, in particular to an underwater DOA estimation method and device based on an adjustable angle-adjustable two-dimensional linear array and a non-circular signal in an unknown sound velocity environment. Background technique [0002] Array signal processing technology has been widely used in many fields, and one of the basic problems of array signal processing is the direction of arrival (DOA estimation) of space signals. Underwater DOA estimation refers to the method of placing sensor arrays on the water surface and using array signal processing technology to estimate the orientation of underwater targets. [0003] Due to the complex and unstable underwater environments such as rivers and oceans, the speed of sound waves varies with position and time, and the estimation accuracy of underwater DOA algorithms is greatly affected. The current underwater DOA estimation methods generally ass...
