Equivalent Source Method

The equivalent source method (ESM) based on compressive sensing (CS) requires that the source has a sparse or approximately sparse representation in a suitable basis or dictionary. However, in practical applications, it is not easy to find the appropriate basis or dictionary due to the indeterminate characteristics of the source. To solve this problem, an equivalent redundant dictionary is constructed, which contains two core parts: one is the equivalent dictionary used in the CS-based ESMs under the sparse assumption, and the other one is the orthogonal basis obtained by the singular value decomposition (SVD). On this foundation, a method named compressed ESM based on the equivalent redundant dictionary (ERDCESM) is proposed to enhance the performances of source field reconstruction for different types of sources. Moreover, inspired by the idea of functional beamforming (FB), ERDCESM with order v (ERDCESM- v ) can possess a high dynamic range when detecting the source location. The numerical simulations are carried out at different frequencies to evaluate the performance of the proposed method, and the results suggest that the proposed method performs well both for sparse and even spatially extended sources. The validity and practicality of the proposed method are also verified by the experimental results.

In the non-free-field, with the effect of reflection sounds from the reflection boundary, the vibration character of a submerged structure often changes, which may have significant influences on the measurement system configurations. To reduce the engineering cost in low-frequency sound prediction of a submerged structure with finite depth, two methods based on the theory of acoustic radiation mode (ARM) are proposed. One is called the vibration reconstruction equivalent source method (VR-ESM), which utilizes the ARM to reconstruct the total vibration of the structure, and the sound prediction is completed with the equivalent source method (ESM); the other is called the compressed modal equivalent source method (CMESM), which utilizes the theory of compressive sensing (CS) and the ARM to reinforce the sparsity of source strengths. The sound field separation (SFS) technology is combined with the above two methods for constructing the ARMs accurately in the non-free field. Simulations show that both methods are efficient. Compared with the traditional method based on the structural modal analysis, the methods based on the ARM could efficiently reduce the scale of the measurement system. However, the measurement point arrangement should be optimized to keep the prediction results accurate. In this paper, the optimization process is completed with the efficient independence (EFI) method. In addition, some factors that may affect the prediction accuracy are also analyzed in this paper. When the submerge depth is large enough, the process of contrasting ARMs could be further simplified. The results of the paper could help in saving engineering costs to predict the low-frequency sound radiation of submerged structures in the future.

Transient acoustic field can be rebuilt directly in the time-domain via the interpolated time-domain equivalent source method (ITDESM). However, this method requires that the reconstruction should be addressed in the free-field only, which can hardly be met in the engineering noise problems. To circumvent this difficulty, an extended ITDESM procedure is developed by extending the ITDESM from the free-field to the semi-free-field. In this approach, the time-domain equivalent sources are placed not only near the actual sound sources but also around their image sources with respect to the planar reflecting surface. The solving procedure of the equivalent source strengths is improved to decrease the computing load. The reflection conditions treated here can be arbitrary, i.e. both perfectly rigid and impedance-effected. Reconstruction results of the transient sound field radiated from three monopoles under different reflection conditions demonstrate the validity and applicability of the proposed method.
