Abstract
The line-array sonar has the problem of port/starboard ambiguity. To solve this problem, based on the target spatial gain, half-power beam width and target port/starboard discrimination ability, the multi-target detection performances of different vector arrays, including line-array, circular-array, cross-array and Y-shaped array, were analyzed and compared. The simulation results show that for vector hydrophone arrays, all the arrays have their own advantages in spatial gain, beam width and target port/starboard discrimination ability. The port/starboard discrimination ability of circular-array and Y-shaped array is better than that of line-array and cross-array, but at the cost of reducing the spatial gain. And the bearing resolution of Y-shaped array is better than that of circular-array. Based on the comprehensive analysis of various index elements, the detection performance of vector Y-shaped array is the best when the spatial gain could be appropriately weaken.
