Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of parameter estimation of underwater acoustic echoes, in particular to an echo signal parameter estimation method under a multi-path channel.
Background
The complex time-frequency characteristics of underwater acoustic channels make them one of the most difficult wireless channels to process echo signals. In the underwater acoustic target channel, the relative motion between the target or the sonar causes the doppler effect of the echo signal, and the transmitted signal in most underwater acoustic systems has a broadband characteristic, so the doppler effect at this time cannot be reduced to the shift of the signal frequency, but the compression or broadening of the signal pulse width caused by the doppler coefficient.
Meanwhile, the reflected signals of the underwater acoustic target may have different transmission paths, so that the received echoes are the superposition of a plurality of channel component signals, and the amplitude attenuation, arrival time and compression coefficient of the signals are different. At present, most of multi-path underwater acoustic signal processing methods only consider the Doppler coefficient of the signal component with the largest energy in multi-path signals, ignore the deviation of the Doppler coefficients in other paths, and have the factors of large computation amount, large influence of parameter estimation between adjacent signals and the like, so that a novel and efficient channel parameter estimation method is urgently developed.
In an active sonar signal processing system, matched filtering is a common signal detection and estimation method, copy signals in a matched filter are changed and correlation operation is carried out, and then the copy signal corresponding to the maximum value of a peak value in an output result is the signal form closest to the main components in a received signal. The conventional matched filtering algorithm has a plurality of matched peaks with different amplitudes when detecting multipath signals, which is not favorable for accurate estimation of target parameters. Meanwhile, the matching peak side lobe of the signal component with higher energy may mask the matching result of the adjacent signal component, so that the method needs to be improved and utilized to effectively separate and estimate the parameters of each component of the multipath signal.
