Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of sound pickup technology, and more specifically, to a method and system for remote sound signal pickup based on phase-coded microwave sensing. Background Technology

[0002] Sound, as a crucial means and medium for communication and interaction, has always been a focus of research in the field of information security. Most existing sound pickup methods involve recording with microphones such as mobile phones, voice recorders, and microphones. However, these devices have significant drawbacks in terms of security, concealment, and convenience. Furthermore, this type of microphone sensing technology converts sound signals into electrical signals, which are then amplified and converted from analog to digital for storage. During transmission, these signals are easily affected by various shielding devices, interfering with the transmission process.

[0003] Patent document CN110568073A (application number: CN201910871148.5) discloses a method for picking up impact signals in a noisy environment. The method includes: step S1: acquiring the sound frequency signal of the tunnel lining by impact, and recording it as the sampling signal; step S2: extracting and separating the impact signal and noise signal from the sampling signal by short-time Fourier transform analysis based on the sampling signal obtained in step S1, thereby extracting the excitation signal, wherein the signal before the impact signal position is the noise signal; step S3: performing Hamming window filtering and FFT spectrum analysis on both the excitation signal and the noise signal extracted in step S2, subtracting the noise signal spectrum from the effective signal interval spectrum to obtain the true excitation signal spectrum; at the same time, analyzing the dominant period and centroid period of the true excitation signal spectrum to perform impact detection defect analysis.

[0004] Existing long-range non-contact sound pickup methods mainly include laser, vision, and microwave methods. Laser interferometry-based sound sensing technology can achieve long-distance sound pickup, but it primarily focuses on single-point testing and requires high surface quality from the target object, making it very demanding. Vision-based sound sensing technology is limited by camera frame rate, primarily tests low-frequency sounds, and is significantly affected by environmental factors such as lighting, resulting in lower accuracy. Microwave-based sound pickup technology can achieve high-quality sound perception, but as the transmission distance increases, the echo signal weakens, the signal-to-noise ratio decreases, and long-range sound perception is limited. Therefore, researching highly reliable long-range sound pickup technologies is of great significance for sound sensing and information security.

[0005] Existing microwave-based sound sensing methods suffer from weak echo signals, reduced signal-to-noise ratio, and severe interference from nearby target coupling clutter in remote sound pickup, which seriously affects the accuracy of sound signal reconstruction. Summary of the Invention

It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several changes and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention. These all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0076] Example 1:

[0077] like Figure 1 The diagram shows a flowchart of the remote sound pickup method based on phase-coded microwave sensing proposed in this invention. Specifically, the method involves: First, constructing a phase-coding matrix to control the phase shift of the transmitted signals from multiple transmitting antennas; controlling multiple transmitting antennas to simultaneously transmit linear frequency modulated continuous wave signals, ensuring the main lobe of the synthesized beam faces the direction of the sound source or the target medium; using one or more receiving antennas to receive the echo signals from the sound source target, obtaining baseband signals with the corresponding number of channels; then, performing acoustic vibration phase demodulation on the baseband signals with the corresponding number of channels in a distance-angle two-dimensional plane to extract vibration information from the sound source or the vibration information of the target medium surface caused by acoustic wave excitation; finally, reconstructing the sound signal to achieve remote sound pickup.

[0078] Step S1: Construct a phase coding matrix to perform phase shift control on the transmitted signals from multiple transmit antennas.

[0079] This invention reconstructs sound signals by measuring the vibration of a sound source or the vibration of surrounding environmental targets caused by sound using a microwave sensing method. To achieve long-range sound pickup and improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the echo signal, phase coding and phase shift control are used to focus the synthesized beam of multiple transmitted and received microwave signals in one direction, thereby increasing the sensing distance and the echo signal-to-noise ratio.

[0080] Assuming the angle between the location of the sound source or target medium and the transmitting antenna array is θ1, construct the phase coding matrix:

[0081]

[0082] Where, d k λ represents the distance between the k-th transmitting antenna and the first transmitting antenna; K is the number of transmitting antennas; k = 2, ..., K; c The wavelength corresponding to the center frequency of a linear frequency modulated continuous wave;

[0083] Based on the phase coding matrix, the initial phase of each transmit antenna is set as follows: 0, 2πd²sinθ¹ / λ c , …, 2πd K sinθ1 / λ c To control each antenna to transmit microwave signals simultaneously, such as Figure 2a and Figure 2b As shown, the main lobe direction angle of the synthesized beam is set to θ1, pointing towards the sound source or target medium to be measured. The sensing distance after beam synthesis is increased by 2-3 times compared with that before beam synthesis.

[0084] Let the transmitted signal from the first transmitting antenna be s1(t), and the synthesized transmitted signal through phase shift control be:

[0085]

[0086] in,

[0087]

[0088]

[0089]

[0090] A T Let f be the amplitude of the transmitted signal, f0 be the initial frequency of the transmitted signal, B be the signal bandwidth, T be the time length of one sweep cycle of the transmitted signal, φ0 be the initial phase, t be the time series, θ be the traversal angle, and a(θ) be the amplitude of the transmitted signal. H d is the conjugate transpose of a(θ); d is the spacing between each transmitting antenna.

[0091] Step S2: Transmit and receive linear frequency modulated continuous wave signals to obtain multi-channel baseband signals.

[0092] Multiple transmitting antennas are controlled to simultaneously transmit linear frequency modulated continuous wave signals, so that the main lobe of the synthesized beam is oriented towards the direction of the sound source or the target medium. One or more receiving antennas are used to receive the echo signals from the sound source / target. After hardware mixing and low-pass filtering, the baseband signal corresponding to the channel of the first receiving antenna is obtained as follows:

[0093]

[0094] In the formula, ψ=πd(sinθ0-sinθ) / λ c

[0095] set up After demodulation by the beat frequency, the complex phase vector is obtained as follows: The complex phase vector of the receiving array antenna channel can be expressed as:

[0096]

[0097] Among them, A B The amplitude of the received signal is T, where λ0 is the wavelength corresponding to the initial frequency. sweep The sweep frequency is the time duration; R is the distance between the target and the antenna; c is the speed of light; x(iT) sweep) represents the displacement value within the i-th sweep frequency cycle; ψ is an intermediate quantity; f b This refers to the beat frequency; This represents phase information related to the distance from the target to the microwave transceiver; This represents the phase change value caused by the target vibration during the i-th frequency sweep cycle;

[0098] As can be seen, when θ = θ0, the amplitude is that of a single transmitting antenna. The power is times that of a single transmitting antenna (K). 2 The beamforming and focusing vibration measurement mechanism and method significantly improve the signal strength radiated to the target, thereby greatly increasing the signal-to-noise ratio of the target vibration measurement and effectively reducing noise interference. This provides an effective method for solving the problem of measuring the vibration of remote sound sources or the vibration of media excited by sound waves, thus overcoming the challenge of remote sound signal pickup.

[0099] Step S3: Sound and vibration phase demodulation to extract vibration information of the sound source or target medium surface under test.

[0100] By demodulating the acoustic phase, the vibration displacement sequence of the target sound source or target medium surface in each scanning cycle is extracted:

[0101]

[0102] In the formula, x(p,θ) s ,R,iT sweep ) represents the p-th cyclic scan, with the beam scanning angle being θ. s 1. Displacement sequence element values ​​of the target or measuring point under test with a transmission sweep period of i and a current scanning angle distance of R; arg{} is the operation for taking complex phase values; N is the number of single-channel baseband signal elements in each sweep period; n is the sequence number of single-channel baseband signal elements in each sweep period; T s The sampling frequency and time of the baseband signal; s B (p,θ s iT,nT s ) represents the p-th cyclic scan, with a beam scanning angle of θ. s The matrix consists of M baseband signals from the i-th transmit frequency sweep cycle, with column vectors representing the baseband signals from the m-th channels (m = 1, 2, ..., M); j is the imaginary unit.

[0103] Step S4: Reconstruct the sound signal to achieve remote sound pickup.

[0104] The vibration signal extracted from the sound source or target medium surface is processed using methods including low-pass filtering to obtain an acoustic signal within a specific frequency range, enabling remote sound pickup. In practical applications, the processed vibration signal can be normalized.

[0105] If there are multiple sound source targets, such as Figure 3 The test scenario diagram shown is repeated using steps S1-S3, based on the azimuth angle θ of the remaining sound sources. i A phase encoding matrix is ​​constructed, and the acoustic vibration signal of the sound source is extracted to achieve remote sound pickup.
