Problems solved by technology

[0002] The lack of resolution and insufficient range of sonar passive detection have always been difficult problems in the field of underwater acoustic detection
The capabilities of traditional DOA estimation techniques are also limited due to the limited array space
The main problem is that in the case of limited array space, it is impossible to accurately detect weak or long-distance targets
At the same time, in the presence of strong interference, it is impossible to effectively detect nearby targets of strong interference
Moreover, at the moment when multiple targets exist at the same time, its target resolution ability is not enough to distinguish adjacent targets

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of underwater acoustic detection position, and relates to an autonomous detection sonar multi-target DOA estimation method based on information fusion. Background technique [0002] The lack of resolution and insufficient range of sonar passive detection has always been a difficult problem in the field of underwater acoustic detection. Considering the complexity and variability of the marine environment and the concealment of targets, a large number of signal processing algorithms have been proposed in history. The traditional DOA estimation technology usually uses multi-array elements to receive data for beamforming, and then obtains the spatial spectrum through steering vector scanning, and then performs DOA estimation by selecting the maximum or maximum value of the spatial spectrum. Due to the limited array space, the capabilities of traditional DOA estimation techniques are also limited. The main prob...
