Battlefield Acoustic Target Localization in Electronic Sentinel System
Guang Yu Liu, Cheng Zhang, Tie Lin Liu · Advanced materials research · 2012
The problem of battlefield acoustic target localization is studied based on an array model of a uniform circular array (UCA) mounted on a rigid cylinder including beamforming technology and high resolution direction of arrival (DOA) estimation algorithm. The influence of various facts to the discussed localization algorithms is analyzed. It is concluded that the direction of the battlefield acoustic target can be achieved by the proposed high resolution DOA estimation algorithm. The performance of the eigen-beam beamforming array and the high resolution DOA estimation algorithm can be improved by the rigid cylinder.
