AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing underwater acoustic communication methods have relatively fixed time-frequency characteristics, making them easy to decipher. Furthermore, their detection performance is limited in low signal-to-noise ratio environments, making it difficult to achieve effective covert communication.

Method used

Abstract

本发明涉及水声通信技术领域,为一种基于混沌扩频与仿生伪装相结合的水声隐蔽通信方法,包括:将二进制比特流分组为符号序列;利用Logistic映射生成第一混沌序列,对符号序列进行跳码编码;导入鲸豚的Whisle音频构建仿生模式码集,采用差分时延差编码将跳码编码符号序列映射为时延值,生成基带信号;利用第二Logistic映射生成第二混沌序列,升序排序后线性映射至预设频带得到跳频频率控制序列,对基带信号进行单边带调制生成射频发射信号;利用相同混沌序列进行解跳频和下变频,对基带信号进行匹配滤波并提取相关峰,通过时延差逆映射和逆混沌置换恢复原始数据。本发明能有效提高水声通信系统的隐蔽性、抗干扰性和抗多普勒性能,可以适应复杂时变水声信道。
