Abstract
In this paper, a matched-field processing (MFP) method based on sparse Bayesian learning (SBL) is proposed for robust multi-frequency underwater acoustic source localization. Firstly, a noise-free SBL framework is established by integrating the noise precision, which results in a heavy-tailed student-t posterior distribution potentially promoting the robustness for noise and environmental mismatch. Secondly, to enhance the computational efficiency, a modified fast SBL procedure is derived by sequentially maximizing the multi-frequency joint-sparsity marginal likelihood function. Finally, a new refined estimation strategy based on linear approximation is proposed to deal with the off-grid source localization problem. Simulations demonstrate that the proposed multi-frequency noise-free fast sparse Bayesian learning (MNFFSBL) algorithm not only has better performance than traditional MFP processors in scenarios of low SNR and modest environmental mismatch scenarios but also is much faster than the SBL method. The effectiveness of the proposed method is also validated by processing the data of the SWellEx-96 ocean acoustic experiment.
期刊介绍:
Since its launch in 1968, Applied Acoustics has been publishing high quality research papers providing state-of-the-art coverage of research findings for engineers and scientists involved in applications of acoustics in the widest sense.
Applied Acoustics looks not only at recent developments in the understanding of acoustics but also at ways of exploiting that understanding. The Journal aims to encourage the exchange of practical experience through publication and in so doing creates a fund of technological information that can be used for solving related problems. The presentation of information in graphical or tabular form is especially encouraged. If a report of a mathematical development is a necessary part of a paper it is important to ensure that it is there only as an integral part of a practical solution to a problem and is supported by data. Applied Acoustics encourages the exchange of practical experience in the following ways: • Complete Papers • Short Technical Notes • Review Articles; and thereby provides a wealth of technological information that can be used to solve related problems.
Manuscripts that address all fields of applications of acoustics ranging from medicine and NDT to the environment and buildings are welcome.
