Abstract
En 中文
In order to effectively deal with quiet source emissions and elevated ambient noise level in littoral waters, it is important that one understand and exploit the underlying signal microstructure. Experiences indicate that thorough understanding of signal structures is a key to designing robust detection and signal processing algorithms. Therefore, classify-before-detect algorithms are designed and their performance evaluated with passive broadband (PBB) data corrupted by the SWell-EX1 shallow water ambient noise collected near San Diego, CA. The processing strategy is based on (1) exploitation of any microstructure present in target signature by projecting raw data onto appropriate low-dimensional projection spaces, (2) identification of key parameters or ‘‘features’’ crucial in determining the presence of signal, and (3) designing a classifier topology that best matches the underlying feature distribution to minimize modeling errors. Full-spectrum signal processing algorithm design is facilitated by the use of an integrated classification paradigm that takes advantage of an inherent relationship between low-dimensional features and classifier architecture. The analysis results based on the classified PBB signal and the SWell-Ex1 ambient noise indicate that taking advantage of the PBB microstructure improves detection performance by an average of 5 to 15 dB over that of a traditional energy detector.
