Description
Summary:This chapter deals with the localization of wide-band underwater acoustic sources. A combination of high resolution methods with scattering acoustic model are proposed. The bearing and the range sources at each sensor are expressed as a function to those at the first sensor. We present the noneigendecomposition methods fixed-point algorithm, projection approximation subspace tracking (PAST) algorithm, PAST with deflation (PASTD) algorithm and orthogonal PAST (OPAST) algorithm to track the signal subspace to compute leading eigenvectors. The proposed algorithms are faster than singular value decomposition (SVD) for MUSIC. The spatial smoothing operator is used to decorrelate the received signals and to estimate the coherent signal subspace. The performance of the different methods are evaluated by both computer simulations and experimental and data recorded during underwater acoustic experiments.
