Apparatus and method for determining direction of audio source by diver Apparatus and method for determining direction of audio source by diver / 2439602
Signal from a source is received at two nondirectional antennae at a distance of λ/4 from each other. The signal from the first antenna is transmitted to the input of an automatic gain control (AGC) amplifier and the signal from the other antenna is delayed by a quarter-period is summed up with the signal from the first antenna. The summation results in formation of a cardioid-type beam pattern.

As a result, a signal reaches the headphones of the diver, said signal becoming maximum if the diver turns such that the line connecting the right and left side antennae turns in the direction of the source.

The invention is illustrated by the drawing, which shows:

- figure 1 - structural diagram of the inventive system;

- figure 2 - directivity pickup the aqueous antenna device path AGL.

The proposed system consists of two parts: the path AGL and path samplemovie.

Tract AGL contains consistently enabled device 1 forming the probing signal, the generating device 2 and the transmitting antenna 3, sequentially enabled receiving antenna unit 4, unit 5 processing the echo signals from the target and the device 6 measuring the radial component of the target speed, the device 7 measures the distance to the target, the first and second inputs of which are connected with the second output device 5 and 1, respectively, block 8 determine the rate of change of bearing, the input of which is connected to the third output device 4, and the block 9 clarify the direction and control of an antenna path, the first input connected to the second output device 4 and the first and second control outputs - control inputs of the antenna 3 and the device 4, respectively.

The path samplemovie contains consistently included receiving antenna device 10, the device 11 of the signal processing samplemovie and the device 12 bearing measurement, the output of which is connected with the second input unit 9 and unit 2 tract AGL.

In addition, the system includes a block 13 communication with vehicle systems vehicle and the transmitter 14, the first, second and third inputs of which are connected respectively with the output unit 8 output 7 output device 6, the fourth and fifth inputs respectively from the first and second outputs of the block 13, and the sixth input to the third output device 4.

The system is as follows.

The signals from the noise sources goals are accepted by the device 10 and are processed in the device 11. Upon detection of the noise sources target device 12 being measured raw values bearing PGon the detected target. The measured value of PGoutput device 12 is supplied to the second inputs of the devices 2 and 9.

Tract all included in the work on radiation in the direction of the detected path samplemovie goals. The device 2 reproduces generated by the device 1 of the probing signal with a high level of power. This output device 2 receives the input of the antenna 3 and is radiated in the direction of the detected target.

Unit 9 sets the antenna 3 in such position that the radiation is in the direction to the target. This direction is set by the signal corresponding to the value of PGreceived at the second input unit 9 from the output device 12. Synchronously with the antenna 3 unit 9 sets the position of the device 4 so that it took the signals from the same direction in which the radiated signal antenna 3.

Reflected from the target signals are accepted by the device 4 and with it the first pic is ouput to the input device 5.

Clarifying rough values of PGthe bearing is carried out with the help of block 9 and the device 4.

The device 4 includes two narrow partial antenna. Their acoustic axes are shifted one relative to the other in the plane direction finding about the width of the main lobe of the directivity. The device 4 is formed sum and difference of the directional characteristics of partial antennas. Figure 2 shows a typical partial, total and differential directivity of the antenna device 4.

On Figo specifications F1and F2orientation of partial antennas, PIGB - total feature F1+F2orientation and on FIGU - differential characteristic of F1-F2orientation. On the x-axis, when this is the angle φ is the angle of deviation of the direction of arrival of the signal from ravesignal direction of the device 4 (the direction from which the signal levels received by the partial antennas with directional characteristics F1and F2the same).

The total characteristic of F1+F2orientation is used to form the total signal, i.e. the sum of the signals received partial antennas. This signal from the first output device 4 is fed to the input device 5 for dal is Asa processing.

Differential characteristic of F1-F2direction has the shape of a typical discriminatory (DF) characteristics. It is used for forming a difference signal equal to the difference between signals on the partial antennas. It is easy to see that the result of subtraction is proportional to the amplitude and the sign corresponds to the sign of the deviation of the direction of arrival of the signal from ravesignal direction of the device 4. A signal corresponding to this result, that is, the differential characteristic of F1-F2direction, from the second output device 4 is supplied to the first input unit 9. Unit 9 under the action of this signal generates the control signals, under the action of which the antenna 3 and the device 4 to change its position in the plane direction finding in such a way that the deviation ravesignal direction of the device 4 from the direction to the goal decreases. Changing the position of the antenna 3 is changed synchronously with the change of position of the device 4, its acoustic axis is automatically set to coincide with ravesignal direction of the device 4. Eventually ravesignal direction of the device 4 and the acoustic axis of the antenna 3 are coincident with the direction of the target, that is in full compliance with the exact value of PTbearing purposes.

The device 4 with abgene internal sensor, signaling position ravesignal direction of the device 4. In steady state, when the signal on the second output device 4 is equal to zero or close to it, ravesignal direction of the device 4 coincides with the direction to the target. Internal sensor thus generates a signal corresponding to the exact value of PTbearing purpose. This value comes from the third output device 4 to the input unit 8 and the sixth input of the transmitter 14.

Received at the input device 5 echo signal passes in it pre-processing. The results of this processing from the first output device 5 is fed to the input device 6, and from the second to the first input device 7, to the second input of which receives the clock pulse from the second output device 1.

In the device 6 by measuring the radial component of VPtarget speed, and the measurement result is supplied from its output to the third input of the transmitter 14.

In the device 7 measures the distance D to the target and the measurement result is supplied from its output to the second input of the transmitter 14.

In block 8 is determined by the rate of change (derivative time) refined bearinggoal and resultits definition comes from its output to the first input of the transmitter 14.

From the first output unit 13 on the fourth WMO the transmitter 14 receives the rate To Nand from the second output unit 13 to the fifth input of the transmitter receives a velocity VHthe carrier-ship.

The transmitter 14 are defined by the following parameters of target motion:

- the total tangential componentspeed;

- the tangential component of velocity Vtpurpose;

the speed V of the target;

course To the target.

The total tangential componentspeed is calculated by

the formula:

where D andthe range to the target and the rate of change of the adjusted bearing received respectively on the first and second inputs of the transmitter 14.

The tangential component of velocity Vtthe target is calculated by the formula:

where PT- updated Peleng goals coming on the sixth input of the transmitter 14;

VHand KH- the speed and course of the ship carrier, received respectively in the fourth and fifth inputs of the transmitter 14.

Course and speed V targets are calculated by the formulas:

where VPradial component of the target speed, coming to the third input of the transmitter 14.

The parameters K and V are received respectively in the first and second outputs of the transmitter 14 and further can the can be used for classification purposes.

From equations (1)÷(4) it is easy to see that the accuracy of measurement of the parameters K and V target motion is largely determined by the accuracy of the bearing measurement goals. In the system-the prototype of this parameter is determined mode samplemovie, i.e. the accuracy of its measurement is determined by the value of PGand next is not specified.

In the proposed system, the sonar is bearing target is determined in two stages. In the first stage, as in the system prototype is determined by the gross value of PGthe bearing. However in the future it is determined with the help of block 9 and the device 4. The result in the claimed system, the value of PTbearing is determined with much greater accuracy than in the system prototype. Consequently, in the proposed system and the parameters K and V movement goals are determined with greater accuracy than in the system prototype.
