Abstract

Purpose Acoustic signals of the underwater targets are susceptible to noise, reverberation, submarine topography and biology, therefore it is difficult to precisely locate underwater targets. This paper proposes a new underwater Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT) interference passive localization method. This study aims to achieve precise location of the underwater acoustic targets. Design/methodology/approach The principle of HBT interference with ultrasensitive detection characteristics in optical measurements was introduced in the field of hydroacoustics. The coherence of the underwater target signal was analyzed using the HBT interference measurement principle, and the corresponding relationship between the signal coherence and target position was obtained. Consequently, an HBT interference localization model was established, and its validity was verified through simulations and experiments. Findings The effects of different array structures on the localization performance were obtained by simulation analysis, and the simulations confirmed that the HBT method exhibited a higher positioning accuracy than conventional beamforming. In addition, the experimental analysis demonstrated the excellent positioning performance of the HBT method, which verified the feasibility of the proposed method. Originality/value This study provides a new method for the passive localization of underwater targets, which may be widely used in the field of oceanic explorations.

基于Hanbury Brown-Twiss干扰的水下目标被动声定位方法

目的水下目标的声学信号易受噪声、混响、海底地形和生物等因素的影响，难以准确定位水下目标。本文提出了一种新的水下Hanbury-Brown Twiss（HBT）干扰无源定位方法。本研究旨在实现水声目标的精确定位。设计/方法/途径在水声学领域介绍了光学测量中具有超灵敏检测特性的HBT干涉原理。利用HBT干涉测量原理分析了水下目标信号的相干性，得到了信号相干性与目标位置的对应关系。因此，建立了HBT干扰定位模型，并通过仿真和实验验证了其有效性。通过仿真分析，得到了不同阵列结构对定位性能的影响，仿真结果表明，HBT方法比传统波束形成方法具有更高的定位精度。此外，实验分析证明了HBT方法具有良好的定位性能，验证了该方法的可行性。原创性/价值本研究为水下目标的被动定位提供了一种新的方法，可广泛应用于海洋探测领域。

期刊介绍： Sensor Review publishes peer reviewed state-of-the-art articles and specially commissioned technology reviews. Each issue of this multidisciplinary journal includes high quality original content covering all aspects of sensors and their applications, and reflecting the most interesting and strategically important research and development activities from around the world. Because of this, readers can stay at the very forefront of high technology sensor developments. Emphasis is placed on detailed independent regular and review articles identifying the full range of sensors currently available for specific applications, as well as highlighting those areas of technology showing great potential for the future. The journal encourages authors to consider the practical and social implications of their articles. All articles undergo a rigorous double-blind peer review process which involves an initial assessment of suitability of an article for the journal followed by sending it to, at least two reviewers in the field if deemed suitable. Sensor Review’s coverage includes, but is not restricted to: Mechanical sensors – position, displacement, proximity, velocity, acceleration, vibration, force, torque, pressure, and flow sensors Electric and magnetic sensors – resistance, inductive, capacitive, piezoelectric, eddy-current, electromagnetic, photoelectric, and thermoelectric sensors Temperature sensors, infrared sensors, humidity sensors Optical, electro-optical and fibre-optic sensors and systems, photonic sensors Biosensors, wearable and implantable sensors and systems, immunosensors Gas and chemical sensors and systems, polymer sensors Acoustic and ultrasonic sensors Haptic sensors and devices Smart and intelligent sensors and systems Nanosensors, NEMS, MEMS, and BioMEMS Quantum sensors Sensor systems: sensor data fusion, signals, processing and interfacing, signal conditioning.
