声矢量传感器信号处理

声矢量传感器能够同步、共点、直接测量声场空间一点处声压和质点振速,从而有可能改善传统水声测量或探测设备的性能,为解决一些实际的水声问题拓展了新的思路。尽管声矢量传感器出现在水声领域的历史不算久,但是由于巨大的潜在军事需求牵引,它在最近十数年间的发展势头愈发地强劲,逐渐演变为不断被重视的水声技术之一。在此背景下,本文尝试综述声矢量传感器信号处理研究的当前进展,如信号检测、 DOA估计、波束形成等。

Acoustic vector sensor signal processing

Acoustic vector sensor simultaneously, colocately and directly measures orthogonal components of particle velocity as well as pressure at single point in acoustic field so that is possible to improve performance of traditional underwater acoustic measurement devices or detection systems and extends new ideas for solving practical underwater acoustic engineering problems. Although acoustic vector sensor history of appearing in underwater acoustic area is no long, but with huge and potential military demands, acoustic vector sensor has strong development trend in last decade, it is evolving into a one of important underwater acoustic technology. Under this background, we try to review recent progress in study on acoustic vector sensor signal processing, such as signal detection, DOA estimation, beamforming, and so on.
