Abstract:
To resolve the detection and orientation problem of autonomous underwater vehicle which platform is limited, single vector sensor with orientation ability is selected. The method of detection and bearing estimation based on vector sensor and its performance are researched in this paper. Vector sonar synthetical copy correlator and vector sonar synthetical adaptive correlator are put forward here, which use both pressure and velocity information. The composing principle and realizing method of the two processors above are studied and the processing gain, detecting probability and bearing estimation ability of the two are analyzed in acoustic multi-path condition. The theoretical results simulation and experiments show that all methods studied above have better performance than common copy correlation, and in multipath condition, the vector sonar synthetical adaptive correlation does better than vector sonar synthetical copy correlation in the aspect of processing gain and bearing estimation. Keywords: active detection; direction finding; autonomous underwater vehicle; vector sensor; synthetical copy correlator; synthetical adaptive correlator
