The CW signal is a Doppler sensitive signal for target velocity measurement, but because the underwater acoustic channel is slowly time-varying and has severe frequency selective fading, the CW pulse has a failure condition in practical use;
The HFM pulse and the LFM pulse are used for suppressing reverberation and simultaneously carrying out high-precision ranging on the target, but the HFM pulse and the LFM pulse belong to Doppler insensitive signals, so that speed information of the target cannot be provided;
In order to make up for the defect that the Doppler insensitive signal cannot measure the target speed, a learner in the active detection field puts forward a CW+LFM combined pulse form, but the situation that the CW signal is influenced by channel fading is also faced.
In view of this, the present invention has been made.
