Method for vessel attitude estimation by spatial correlation function for bottom reverberation

Under the assumption that the sea bottom is an almost-flat and randomly rough thin layer, a spatial correlation model for bottom reverberation is constructed. At high signal noise ratio, the phase of the spatial correlation function is the product of sound wave number and the vertical vector between two hydrophones. In a nominally horizontal plane, roll and pitch bring on the vertical vector between the hydrophones. Then an equation including roll, pitch and the phase of the spatial correlation function is found. If a parallelogram can be constructed by 3 hydrophones and the rat ios of its acreage to diagonals are not smaller than half of the wavelength, roll and pitch can be obtained analytically or by optimal method. However, the ranges of roll and pitch are restricted because of the phase ambiguity. Using Fisher information matrix, the Cramer-Rao lower bound is obtained. Results from computer simulation and sea test data prove the feasibility of the method.     

底混响空间相关函数方法估计载体姿态

在海底是起伏不大的非均匀薄层的假设条件下,建立了底混响空间相关函数模型。当混噪比较高时,模型中空间相关函数相位等于基元间垂向矢量与波数的乘积。对于平面阵而言,基元间垂向矢量是由于基阵载体姿态引起的。因此,可以给出底混响空间相关函数相位与载体横摇角和纵摇角之间的关系式。如果接收阵存在3个接收基元,它们对应平行四边形面积与对角线之比不小于半波长,那么可以通过解方程组的方法得到横摇角和纵摇角的确定解或优化解。由于相位模糊的存在,解的范围是有限的。通过Fisher信息矩阵得到了这种方法姿态估计的Cramer-Rao下限。仿真实验和海试结果表明这种方法是可行的。

Space anisotropy of bottom reverberation in the coastal zone

A method for calculating the bottom reverberation in a coastal zone with allowance for the three-dimensional bottom topography, which affects the spatial anisotropy of the incoming reverberation signal, is proposed. The method is based on the ray approach in combination with the use of the ray invariant. Examples of calculating the monostatic bottom reverberation level for one of the coastal regions with a complex bottom topography including the coastal line and an underwater elevation are presented.     

Observable parameters from multipath bottom reverberation in shallow water

Multipath ocean reverberation originating from the seabed in shallow isovelocity water, with particular attention to its information content in the cylindrical spreading and mode stripping regions, is considered. The reverberation is evaluated using Weston's flux integral method, both analytically with various simplifying approximations and numerically with all but one of these approximations rescinded. The functional form of the analytical solution is used to infer which physical seabed parameters can be extracted from measurements of reverberation. Coarse- and fine-grained sediments (sand and clay) are both considered. The main purpose of the numerical solutions is to check the accuracy of the analytical approximations; they also serve as a convenient surrogate for measured reverberation.     

浅海低频本地海底混响的波导不变性结构及抑制方法研究

根据浅海混响的射线简正波相干混响理论和可分离的海底散射模型,从理论上推导了浅海低频本地海底混响信号中存在的稳定的距离-频率干涉结构(波导不变性结构),并在此基础上基于谱相减的思想提出了一种基于波导不变性的本地海底混响预测对消方法。针对某个检测距离,其对应的中心频率上的海底混响强度可以根据波导不变性通过频移的方法在另一个与之相邻的距离上估计得到,利用该估计的混响强度可以对消检测距离对应的回波信号中的海底混响强度分量,增强回波信混比,提高目标检测能力。针对典型水平分层浅海波导环境,通过计算机仿真实验分析了低频海底混响存在的稳定波导不变性结构,验证了本文提出的基于波导不变性的混响预测对消方法的有效性。     

Time structure of bistatic reverberation in the long-range propagation of explosion-generated signals

In experiments on the long-range propagation of explosion-generated signals, a noise background accompanying the classical signal quartets are repeatedly observed. The background smoothly increases before the arrival of the first signal of the quartet, then decreases, and completely vanishes after the arrival of the last signal of the same quartet. The data of an experiment performed in winter in a deep-water region of the northwestern Pacific are considered. These data are used to demonstrate the phenomenon at hand and to show that the noise background of the quartets is the manifestation of the bistatic reverberation caused by sound scattering by the rough ocean surface towards the receiver located a long distance from the source. An easy-to-use technique is proposed for calculating the time relations between the direct signal and the surface-reverberation one. Calculations are performed for the time structure of the bistatic surface reverberation to explain the observed features of the phenomenon.     

Waveguide invariance structure for low frequency monostatic bottom reverberation mitigation in shallow water

The stable range-frequency interference structure(waveguide invariance) of the low frequency monostatic bottom reverberation in shallow water is derived theoretically in this paper by using ray-normal mode coherent reverberation model and separable bottom scattering model.And combined the concept of spectral subtraction,a reverberation forecasting and mitigating method based on the waveguide invariance is presented.According to the waveguide invariance,the reverberation intensity for a detecting range can be estimated from the reverberation returns scattered from some other range cells nearby the detecting range with frequency shift.Then the reverberation component for the detecting range in the echo can be canceled mostly by using the estimated reverberation intensity,so as to enhance the echo-to-reverberation ratio and improve the detection capability of the active sonar.Simulations in typical horizontal layered shallow water environment show the stability of waveguide invariance structure in the low frequency monostatic bottom reverberation and the efficiency of the reverberation forecasting and mitigating method based on the waveguide invariance.     

Range-dependent waveguide scattering model calibrated for bottom reverberation in a continental shelf environment

An analytic model is developed for scattering from random inhomogeneities in range-dependent ocean waveguides using the Rayleigh-Born approximation to Green's theorem. The expected scattered intensity depends on statistical moments of fractional changes in compressibility and density, which scatter as monopoles and dipoles, respectively, and the coherence volume of the inhomogeneities. The model is calibrated for ocean bottom scattering using data acquired by instantaneous wide-area ocean acoustic waveguide remote sensing (OAWRS) and geophysical surveys of the ONR Geoclutter Program. The scattering strength of the seafloor on the New Jersey shelf, a typical continental shelf environment, is found to depend on wave number k, medium coherence volume V(c), and seabed depth penetration factor F(p) following a 10 log(10)(F(p)V(c)k(4)) dependence. A computationally efficient numerical approach is developed to rapidly compute bottom reverberation over wide areas using the parabolic equation by exploiting correlation between monopole and dipole scattering terms and introducing seafloor depth penetration factors. An approach is also developed for distinguishing moving clutter from statistically stationary background reverberation by tracking temporal and spatial fluctuations in OAWRS intensity images.     

噪声修正的混响反演海底反射系数幅值参数

利用一种噪声修正方法解决低混噪比条件下混响数据反演海底反射系数幅值参数偏差的问题。将全波动混响理论中的混响非相干平均强度,叠加海洋环境噪声平均强度,获得包含噪声的混响平均强度理论,分析背景噪声平均强度对反演海底反射系数幅值参数的影响。数值仿真表明,背景噪声平均强度的叠加使得混响平均强度衰减趋势减缓,导致海底反射系数幅值参数反演结果偏小,混响噪声比越低,影响越明显。提出一种噪声平均强度相减的修正方法,对混响噪声比为[0,6] dB的混响平均强度数据进行修正,利用修正后的混响数据反演得到偏差较小的海底反射系数幅值参数。对比浅海混响实验数据衰减至不同混噪比时反演所得海底反射系数幅值参数,以及经噪声修正后的反演结果,验证了本文提出方法的可行性。     

Scattering in a Pekeris waveguide from a rough bottom using a two-way coupled mode approach

Scattering from a rough ocean bottom is described numerically with a two-way coupled-mode formalism that contains scattering effects to all orders and provides an exact solution to the wave equation. Both scattered field and direct blast components are computed within the formalism framework. A comparison of the scattered component solution from the coupled mode with the Born approximation (BA) solution for scattering from a rough bottom Pekeris waveguide shows that the BA predicts correctly the scattered field levels but not detailed structure. The transition from direct blast to scattered field dominance is identified in the total field time series.     

改进次最佳检测在侧扫声呐底混响抑制中的应用*

侧扫声呐进行沉底小目标探测时,底混响是主要背景干扰。底混响通常是一种非平稳、非高斯的带限噪声,它使得白噪声条件下的滤波器性能受到限制。在混响背景下常利用自回归模型对接收信号进预行白化处理,但对于实际侧扫声呐应用,白化后直接匹配滤波的处理效果不甚理想。针对此问题,在自回归模型预白化的基础上,提出采用一种次最佳检测与多分辨二分奇异值分解相结合的改进方法。该方法首先对接收信号进行分段处理,利用改进Burg算法估计每段数据自回归模型的系数及阶数;然后构造白化滤波器对分段数据预白化,并对白化后的数据进行多分辨二分奇异值分解;最后应用ostu方法对原始声图和处理后的声图进行目标检测。仿真与实验结果表明,该方法明显提高了信混比,改善了侧扫声呐沉底静态小目标的成图质量,有利于后期实现基于图像的目标自动检测。

Extraction of mode attenuation coefficient from low frequency reverberation signal

A method of extracting normal mode attenuation coefficient from low frequency reverberation signal has been proposed.Pseudo-inverse normal mode filtering method is implemented to get single mode reverberation field firstly.Based on the assumption of separability of modal back-scattering matrix,effective back-scattering matrix element can be calculated using single mode average reverberation intensity.Finally,mode attenuation coefficient is extracted by comparing effective back-scattering matrix elements at different ranges.The extracted mode attenuation coefficients are used to predict sound transmission loss at the same experiment area. Results show that the predicted transmission loss agrees well with the measured data.This method avoids the difficult of treating the coupling between bottom scattering attenuation and normal mode propagation attenuation.Research on extraction of mode attenuation coefficient from low frequency reverberation signal is useful for both geoacoustic inversion and rapid underwater environment assessment.
