Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of underwater acoustic signal processing, and in particular, to a method and system for simple normal wave dispersion modal decomposition and sound source depth estimation based on a vertical array, and in particular to a method and system for simple normal wave dispersion modal parameterized space-frequency joint decomposition and sound source depth estimation. Background Art

[0002] In shallow sea environments, the sound propagation process of transient sound sources is composed of a series of simple normal wave modes, each of which has a unique spatial modal function and dispersion phase characteristics. From the perspective of information inclusion, the spatial modal function of each order of simple normal waves contains the depth information of the sound source and the receiving hydrophone. Therefore, the modal function can be extracted by receiving the signal through the vertical hydrophone array, which provides theoretical support for the estimation of the sound source depth. The dispersion characteristics in the phase of each order of simple normal waves contain the sound source propagation distance information, which can be used to estimate the distance of the sound source.

[0003] Simple normal wave dispersion modal decomposition occupies a key position in the entire sound propagation research and sound source localization system. It is an effective way to separate and extract the spatial modal functions and dispersion phase characteristics of simple normal waves of various orders, and plays a decisive role in improving the accuracy of sound source depth and distance estimation.

[0004] However, the commonly used dispersion mode decomposition methods, including Warping transform, frequency-wavenumber transform, singular value decomposition, etc., all have certain limitations. Most of them can only realize dispersion phase extraction with the help of a single hydrophone, or only perform spatial mode function decomposition at a single frequency point, which makes it impossible to fully explore the rich information of frequency and spatial dimensions, and it is difficult to achieve the joint and simultaneous decomposition of spatial mode function and frequency domain dispersion phase.

[0005] There are also many challenges in sound source depth estimation. It often relies on a large amount of prior knowledge of the ocean environment and requires a dense vertical array covering the entire water layer. This high requirement for prior knowledge and equipment not only makes the cost high, but also the depth determination accuracy is easily affected by the degree of matching between the copied mode and the actual modal function. Once the environmental parameters are mismatched, the estimation performance of the sound source depth will drop significantly, ultimately resulting in low accuracy and poor stability in the sound source depth estimation. The existence of these problems has seriously restricted the application and development of simple normal wave dispersion mode decomposition technology in the field of sound source depth and distance estimation, and it is urgent to solve them to promote the advancement and improvement of related technologies.

[0006] By searching the patent literature, it was found that the invention patent with the publication number CN117907998B discloses a shallow water broadband sound source ranging method, medium and system, which includes the following steps: laying a horizontal line array parallel to the sea level at the bottom of the seabed for observation; dividing the received broadband signal into multiple frequency points; performing spatial Fourier transform on the signal of each frequency point to obtain a horizontal wavenumber amplitude spectrum; linking the energy size of each mode in the horizontal wavenumber amplitude spectrum with the estimated accuracy of the horizontal wavenumber value to obtain the modal energy proportion; setting a proportion threshold to filter out the horizontal wavenumber effective value of each frequency point signal; judging the modal sign corresponding to the horizontal wavenumber effective value, and using the horizontal wavenumber effective value and the modal sign to obtain the distance ambiguity function; obtaining the distance ambiguity function of the broadband sound source by summing and averaging the modulus value of the distance ambiguity function, and the distance corresponding to the peak value is the estimated broadband sound source distance. This patent mainly focuses on shallow water broadband sound source ranging, and does not involve the parametric space-frequency joint decomposition of simple normal wave dispersion modes. It cannot fully utilize the space-frequency domain information for sound source depth estimation, and lacks corresponding processing and optimization methods for the decomposition accuracy and depth estimation affected by environmental parameters.

[0007] In summary, the simple normal wave dispersion modal decomposition faces the dilemma of poor accuracy. It is difficult to fully explore and integrate the rich information in the spatial domain and the frequency domain to carry out joint decomposition. In addition, the sound source depth estimation link is significantly affected by environmental parameters, resulting in a large estimation error and other problems. In view of the above problems of the prior art, studying a method and system for simple normal wave dispersion modal decomposition and sound source depth estimation has become a key task that needs to be solved urgently.

[0096] Specifically, according to the simple normal wave theory, ignoring the weak dependence of the spatial modal function on frequency, the vertical array frequency domain signal is expressed as the superposition of a series of dispersive modes, and the expression is as follows:

[0097]

[0098] Where P(z,f) is the vertical array frequency domain signal, which is composed of the superposition of M-order dispersion modes and residual components, z = z1, z2, …, z g is the depth of each element of the vertical hydrophone array (g is the number of elements, z is the number of elements, g less than or equal to the seabed depth), f=f1,f2,…,f N Represents discrete frequency points (N is the number of frequency points); p m (z,f) is the mth order dispersion mode, M is the order of the dispersion mode; Represents the residual noise and other high-order components; each order dispersion mode p m (z,f) is given by the spatial mode function Ψ m (z) and the dispersion modal response q m The product of (f) is formed. The dispersion modal response of each order q m (f) contains the dispersion phase φ m (f) and amplitude a m (f), the expression is:

[0099] q m (f) = a m (f)exp(jφ m (f)) (2)

[0100] Among them, j 2 =-1 represents the imaginary number sign.

[0101] Figure 2 is a spatial frequency domain signal received by a 10-element vertical hydrophone array in an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 3 It is a short-frequency Fourier transform time-frequency diagram of the frequency domain signal of array element No. 1 in an embodiment of the present invention.

The vertical hydrophone array elements are numbered 1-10 from shallow to deep; the transient sound source is located at a water depth of 65m, and the horizontal distance from the receiving hydrophone array is 10000m. The vertical hydrophone array receiving signal is simulated, and the sampling frequency is set to 500Hz to obtain a 10-channel time domain receiving signal. The signal is Fourier transformed and converted to the space-frequency domain to obtain the vertical array space-frequency domain signal as shown in the figure.

It can effectively avoid the boundary effect problem introduced by the conventional Fourier basis function approximation of non-periodic functions, thereby better characterizing the spatial modal functions of various orders.

[0107] Then, the spatial modal functions of each order of simple normal waves in equation (3) are converted into spatial parameterized models in matrix form:

[0146]

[0147] The reconstruction results of the first 6 order spatial mode functions are as follows: Figure 4 As shown: the black circles are the theoretical values ​​of the spatial mode functions of each order at the depth of 10 array elements, and their resolution is relatively low; while the black dotted lines are the values ​​of the spatial mode functions of each order decomposed and reconstructed by the present invention, and the black dotted lines have a higher depth resolution because the reconstructed spatial mode functions It can be calculated at finer depth sampling points z = z1, z2, ..., z h The spatial modal function value (the z value here is 1, 2, 3, ..., 100m), so that the depth resolution is better, laying a solid foundation for the next step to improve the accuracy of sound source depth estimation.

[0148] Step S6.3: Reconstruct the dispersion modal responses of each order based on the frequency domain parameter vectors of each order:

[0149]

[0150] The reconstruction results of the first 6 order dispersive modal responses are as follows: Figure 5 As shown in the figure, it can be clearly found that as the order increases, the cutoff frequency of each order of dispersion mode increases successively. In order to visualize the effectiveness and accuracy of the decomposition and reconstruction results of each order of dispersion mode response, a short-frequency Fourier transform is performed on each order of dispersion mode to obtain the time-frequency diagram of each order of dispersion mode, as shown in Figure 6 As shown, it is intuitively shown that the modal responses of each order of dispersion have been completely decomposed, and the decomposed modal dispersion characteristics of each order are consistent with the theoretical group delay curve ( Figure 6 The white dotted line in the figure is consistent, which fully verifies the effectiveness and accuracy of the combined decomposition method of the present invention.

[0151] Step S7: Based on each order of spatial mode function, each order of dispersion mode response and each order of dispersion mode response, a sound source depth estimation index is constructed, and the sound source depth value is obtained by optimization.

[0152] Specifically, step S7 includes the following sub-steps:

[0153] Step S7.1: Reconstructed spatial mode function Not limited to the number and depth of vertical hydrophone array elements, according to the depth sampling points z = z1, z2, ..., z h , z h Less than or equal to the seabed depth (h is the number of depth sampling points), obtain the value of the spatial modal function (here the z value is 1, 2, 3, ..., 100m in sequence), and construct the sound source depth estimation index in the space-frequency domain as follows:

[0154]

[0155] Among them, J(z,f) is the sound source depth estimation index, which is a two-dimensional distribution function of the spatial domain z and the frequency domain f; multiplying the reconstructed dispersion mode response of each order by the dispersion phase of each order is equivalent to demodulating the phase of each order dispersion mode, so that the above index has a maximum value when a certain depth sampling point is close to the actual sound source depth.

[0156] Step S7.2: Superimpose the square of J(z,f) along the frequency f and take the depth corresponding to the maximum value, which is the estimated value of the sound source depth The formula is as follows:

[0157]

[0158] In equations (17) and (18), some order dispersion modes are selected from the M-order dispersion modes to construct the sound source depth index, and some frequency bands can also be selected to superimpose J(z,f) to obtain the maximum value to estimate the sound source depth. The above indicators have the function of selecting the modal order and frequency band, which can allow the operator to have a better understanding of the sound source depth estimation results and its influencing factors.

[0159] like Figure 7 The figure shows the two-dimensional joint distribution of the sound source depth estimation index in the spatial domain and the frequency domain. It can be clearly seen that the curve of the sound source depth estimation value changing with frequency ( Figure 7 Furthermore, the square sum of the sound source depth estimation index is performed along the frequency dimension, and the maximum value of the index is found as the sound source depth estimation result, such as Figure 8 As shown, the sound source depth estimation result is 64m, which is consistent with the actual value of 65m, and the depth estimation error is about 1.5%, which verifies that the present invention has a high estimation accuracy in sound source depth estimation.
