Rayleigh Limit

The underwater target’s bearing resolution capability of conventional beam forming method is strictly limited by Rayleigh limit and influenced by media’s inhomogeneity heavily. Minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) algorithms have broken through the Rayleigh limit restrictions and make higher resolutions possible. For the complexity of the marine environment and multi-path affection, time reversal mirror (TRM) is a new technology which can self-adaptively correct distortion caused by variety of multi-path effects. The concept of TR-MVDR based on vertical array is introduced and the high resolutions of TR-MVDR are studied theoretically, which can realize the focus on original position of multiple objectives with higher spatial resolution and focus gain than conventional methods. Due to the poor robustness of TR-MVDR, robustness algorithm based on fixed diagonal loading and RCB have been studied, which can improve the robustness of high-resolution location. Simulations and experiments in freshwater and the sea proved it is feasible and practical

AbstractLinear chirp spread spectrum technique is widely used in underwater acoustic communication because of their resilience to high multipath and Doppler shift. Linear frequency modulated signal requires a high spreading factor to nearly reach orthogonality between two pairs of signals. On the other hand, nonlinear chirp spread spectrum signals can provide orthogonality at a low spreading factor. As a result, it improves spectral efficiency and is more insensitive to Doppler spread than the linear counterpart. To achieve a higher data rate, we propose two variants (half cycle sine and full cycle sine) of the M-ary nonlinear sine chirp spread spectrum technique based on virtual time-reversal mirror (VTRM). The proposed scheme uses different frequency bands to transmit chirp, and VTRM is used to improve the bit error rate due to high multipath. Its superior Doppler sensitivity makes it suitable for underwater acoustic communication. Furthermore, the proposed method uses a simple, low-power bank of matched filters; thus, it reduces the overall system complexity. Simulations are performed in different underwater acoustic channels to verify the robustness of the proposed scheme.

Doppler Compensation

Due to the significant multipath and Doppler effects in the underwater acoustic (UWA) channel, the quality of the received signal is degraded, which seriously affects the performance of UWA communication. The paper proposes a time reversal UWA communication method combined with a symbol-based Doppler compensation (SBDC) technique to solve those problems. A single element time reversal mirror (TRM) is used to realize channel equalization and mitigate the inter-symbol interference (ISI) resulting from multipath propagation. The SBDC technique is subsequently used to compensate Doppler effects in the received signal, thereby reducing the bit error rate (BER) and improving the communication performance. In order to verify the performance of the proposed communication method, some simulations with real sounding channels were performed. Moreover, a field UWA communication experiment was conducted in the Songhua River (Harbin, China). The UWA communication experiment achieves nearly error-free performance with a communication rate of 100 bit/s in the bandwidth of 2 kHz. The results of the experiment demonstrate the feasibility and robustness of the proposed UWA communication method.
