The dynamical behavior of a thin flexible array towed through the water is described by the Paidoussis equation. By discretizing this equation in space and time a finite-dimensional state-space representation is obtained where the states are the transverse displacements of the array from linearity in either the horizontal or vertical plane. The form of the transition matrix in the state-space representation describes the propagation of transverse displacements down the array. The outputs of depth sensors and compasses located along the array are shown to be related in a simple, linear manner to the states. From this state-space representation a Kalman filter which recursively estimates the transverse displacements and hence the array shape is derived. It is shown how the properties of the Kalman filter reflect the physics of the propagation of motion down the array. Solutions of the Riccati equation are used to predict the mean square error of the Kalman filter estimates of the transverse displacements 相似文献

The towfish location and orientation problems that arise in using side-scan sonar to detect objects on the sea bottom are treated separately. Data which locate the towfish relative to the ship are usually deteriorated by multipath receptions and other effects. In order to overcome this serious degradation in the location measurements, a modified Kalman filter is proposed. An estimate of the state transition matrix for this filter is derived, and a means of switching between two Kalman gains is suggested. The feasibility of the proposed filter is justified by a case study. Improved estimates of towfish pitch and heading measurements are obtained by a separate system employing model identification and subsequent Kalman filtering. Application of these methods to data from similar towed side-scan sonar systems should yield significant gains in object location accuracy 相似文献

Towed array beamforming algorithms require accurate array shape information in order to perform properly. Very often, these algorithms assume the array is linear. Unfortunately, the mechanical forces on the array due to ship motion and sea dynamics can change the shape of the array, which degrades the performance of the beamforming algorithm. A data-driven approach to estimating the relative shape of a nominally linear array is presented. The algorithm is robust in that it optimally combines information contained in a wide band of frequencies and source bearings. At the heart of the algorithm is a maximum-likelihood (ML) estimation scheme. The Cramer-Rao lower bound is derived and compared to the performance of the ML estimator. The utility of the algorithm is verified using both simulated and actual towed array data experiments 相似文献

Observation bias correction with an ensemble Kalman filter 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

This paper considers the use of an ensemble Kalman filter to correct satellite radiance observations for state dependent biases. Our approach is to use state-space augmentation to estimate satellite biases as part of the ensemble data assimilation procedure. We illustrate our approach by applying it to a particular ensemble scheme—the local ensemble transform Kalman filter (LETKF)—to assimilate simulated biased atmospheric infrared sounder brightness temperature observations from 15 channels on the simplified parameterizations, primitive-equation dynamics (SPEEDY) model. The scheme we present successfully reduces both the observation bias and analysis error in perfect-model simulations. 相似文献

A three-dimensional model of a two-part underwater towed system is studied. In the model, the governing equations of cables are established based on the Ablow and Schechter method. The boundary conditions for the two-part underwater towed system are derived. The six-degrees-of-freedom equations of motion for submarine simulations are adopted to predict the hydrodynamic performance of a towed vehicle. The established governing equations for the system are then solved using a central finite difference method. In this paper several algorithms are used to solve this special form of finite difference equations. The results in this paper indicate that the two-part underwater towed system improves the dynamic behavior of the towed vehicle and is an easy way to decouple the towing ship motion from the towed vehicle. Because the model uses an implicit time integration, it is stable for large time steps and is an effective algorithm for simulation of a large-scale underwater towed system. 相似文献

A hidden Markov model (HMM) technique for the estimation of the shape of a towed array is presented. It is assumed that there is a far-field source radiating sound containing possibly weak spectral lines. The technique uses either the Fourier coefficients at a given frequency computed from a single time block or the maximal eigenvector of a sample spectral covariance matrix. The technique is illustrated using several simulations. The results of these simulations indicate that the HMM technique yields shape and bearing estimates more accurate than those provided by a maximum-likelihood array shape estimation technique 相似文献

A hydrodynamic model of a two-part underwater manoeuvrable towed system is proposed in which a depressor is equipped with active horizontal and vertical control surfaces, and a towed vehicle is attached to the lower end of a primary cable. In such a system the towed vehicle can be manoeuvred in both vertical and horizontal planes when it is towed at a certain velocity and the coupling effect of excitations at the upper end of the primary cable and disturbances of control manipulations to the towed vehicle can be reduced. In the model the hydrodynamic behavior of an underwater vehicle is described by the six-degrees-of-freedom equations of motion for submarine simulations. The added masses of an underwater vehicle are obtained from the three-dimensional potential theory. The control surface forces of the vehicle are determined by the wing theory. The results indicate that with relative simple control measures a two-part underwater manoeuvrable towed system enables the towed vehicle to travel in a wide range with a stable attitude. The method in this model gives an effective numerical approach for determining hydrodynamic characteristics of an underwater vehicle especially when little or no experimental data are available or when costs prohibit doing experiments for determining these data. 相似文献

During maneuvering, towed array beamforming degrades if a straight array is assumed. This is especially true for high-resolution adaptive beamforming. It is experimentally demonstrated that adaptive beamforming is feasible on a turning array, provided that array shape is estimated. The array shape can be inferred solely from the coordinates of the tow vessel's Global Positioning System (GPS) without any instrumentation in the array. Based on estimated array shape from the GPS, both the conventional beamformer and the white noise constrained (WNC) adaptive beamformer are shown to track the source well during a turn. When calculating the weight vector in the WNC approach, a matrix inversion of the cross-spectral density matrix is involved. This matrix inversion can be stabilized by averaging the cross-spectral density matrix over neighboring frequencies. The proposed algorithms have been tested on real data with the tow-vessel making 45/spl deg/ turns with a 500-m curvature radius. While turning, the improvement in performance over the assumption of a straight array geometry was up to 5 dB for the conventional beamformer and considerably larger for the WNC adaptive beamformer. 相似文献

A numerical technique for mathematically modeling the steady-state and transverse dynamic motion of an underwater towed sonar array is presented. The transverse vibration response of the array is modeled using the finite difference method; the array itself is assumed to be nonneutrally buoyant and possesses a complex modulus and hence inherent damping. The results obtained from this model should provide useful information for further studying the beamforming and passive-ranging performance degradation and predicting the self-noise level of the towed array system. 相似文献

Most of the research on model-based geoacoustic inversion techniques has concentrated on data collected using moored vertical receiver arrays. However, there are many advantages to considering geoacoustic inversion using a towed horizontal array. Towed arrays are easily deployed from a moving platform; this mobility makes them well suited for surveying large areas for sea-bed properties. Further, if a model-based geoacoustic inversion scheme uses both a towed source and array, the separation between the two can be kept short, which reduces the requirement for range-dependent modeling. Range-independent modeling is used for inverting all the horizontal array data considered in this paper. Using the Inversion Techniques Workshop Benchmark Test Cases, the performance of a horizontal (simulated towed) and vertical arrays are compared and found to be very similar. However, it will be shown that, for Benchmark Test Case 3, where the bathymetry is flat and a hidden bottom intrusion exists, a towed horizontal array is ideal for determining the range-dependent sea-bed properties. The practical advantages of using a towed array are clear and the purpose of this paper is to show that the performance is similar (and in some cases better) than using moored vertical arrays. 相似文献

EnKF和SIR-PF在贝叶斯滤波框架下的比较和结合 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
贝叶斯估计理论为非线性、非高斯系统的数据同化提供了一个统一的框架。在本文中,我们利用著名的洛伦茨吸引子(Lorenz'63)模式对两种基于贝叶斯滤波理论的数据同化方法——集合卡尔曼滤波器(EnKF)和重取样粒子滤波器(SIR-PF)——进行了较为全面的比较。比较的结果揭示了两种方法的优缺点:即当集合成员数目较多时,SIR-PF的同化效果优于EnKF;反之,则EnKF的表现较好。进一步地,我们使用统计方法分析了两者表现的差异和原因。最近提出的一种集合卡尔曼粒子滤波器(EnKPF)通过使用一个可控的参数整合EnKF和SIR-PF的分析格式,可以结合两者的优点。本文在充分比较两种方法的前提下,重新阐释并改进了原有的EnKPF算法,使之适用于非线性的观测算子。通过使用相同的洛伦茨模式实验,我们揭示了EnKPF实质上提供了关于EnKF和SIR-PF的连续插值,使得后两者可以视为其特殊情况。并且,在集合成员数目有限的前提下,EnKPF可以在一定程度上避免滤波退化的发生,取得优于EnKF和SIR-PF的同化效果。 相似文献

Reverberation rejection with a dual-line towed array 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Low-frequency bottom reverberation from explosive sources was measured with a dual-line horizontal towed array during a 1991 system engineering trial. The receiver's parallel line arrays were processed coherently in order to unambiguously resolve the reverberation field in azimuth. Initial beamforming that assumed a straight-and-parallel array configuration led to poor or erroneous ambiguity resolution, suggesting the system was deformed significantly from the assumed shape. In the absence of reliable shape measurement data, the array shape was deduced acoustically using tow ship signals and the direct blast of an explosive source. The estimated shape was then used in a shape-compensated beamformer to produce azimuthally unambiguous estimates of the reverberation field. Backlobe rejection of more than 20 dB was attained for both direct blast and distant reverberation energy 相似文献

A practical method is described for the three-dimensional determination of the position, shape, and attitude of a hydrophone array towed from a surface vessel. It provides successive snapshots of the array configuration with a maximum rate of about three per minute. The method is intended as an alternative to the use of fixed test ranges and provides results suitable for validating computer models of array motion. It uses the travel-time differences of impulsive waves measured across the array. The waves are generated by two explosive charges dropped from consorts. Results of a typical experiment are presented as an illustrative example. The array position relative to the tow ship is obtained to within an accuracy of a few metres 相似文献

The Marine Physical Laboratory has designed, fabricated, and taken to sea self-contained, freely drifting acoustic sensors which can measure signal propagation and ambient ocean noise in the 1-20-Hz band for up to 25-hour periods. The deployment of several freely drifting floats forms an array of sensors whose outputs can be combined after the experiment with a beamformer. A Kalman filter and a least-squares estimator have been developed to estimate float positions from travel-time measurements. Computer simulation is used to compare filter performance-under several deployment scenarios. Results show that the Kalman filter performs better than the least-squares filter when the floats are subjected to small-magnitude accelerations between measurements. Neither filter was sensitive to relatively major changes in deployment geometry as long as the sound-speed profile is known exactly 相似文献

The problem of beam formation from a towed line array whose shape has been distorted is considered. Emphasis is placed on the beam broadening and range estimation effects of array shape perturbations and how the resulting losses can be regained if the actual element positions are known. Specific illustrations are provided for various levels of shape distortion. For example, a 15-m bow in a 232.5-m-long array broadens the beamwidth by a factor of 3 at 50 Hz. As another example, a 6-m bow in an 800-m-long array leads to a 20-pereent range underestimation at 10 km for a 100-500-Hz broadband source. 相似文献

A model-based approach to solve a deep water ocean acoustic signal processing problem based on a state-space representation of the normal-mode propagation model is developed. The design of a model-based processor (MBP) for signal enhancement employing an array consisting of a large number of sensors for a deep ocean surveillance operation is discussed. The processor provides enhanced estimates of the measured pressure-field, modes, and residual (innovations) sequence indicating the performance or adequacy of the propagation model relative to the data. It is shown that due to the structure of the normal-mode model the state-space propagator is not only feasible for this large scale problem, but in fact, can be implemented by a set of decoupled parallel second-order processors, implying a real-time capability. In the paper we discuss the design and application of the processor to a realistic set of simulated pressure-field data developed from a set of experiments and sound speed parameters 相似文献
