摘要：In order to analyze the frequency periodicity characteristics of acoustic field interference and realize acoustic source ranging (ASR), the normal mode model is used to analyze the interference characteristics of the broadband acoustic field under the condition of horizontally layered medium; the broadband received signal field when the broadband pulse signal passes through the acoustic field is also simulated. The variation of interference patterns with frequency is analyzed, and their spatial interference characteristics and mechanisms are analyzed. Based on the interference theory, the relation between the acoustic source range and the frequency periodicity of the broadband acoustic intensity interference is derived. Simulation and experimental results show that this relation can accurately estimate the far-field acoustic source range, and the estimation accuracy and real-time performance are greatly improved compared with previous methods. Besides, simulation shows that the method combined with multiple-receiver ranging obtains high-precision direction of arrival (DOA) estimation as well as ASR. The relation between acoustic source position and broadband acoustic field interference frequency periodicity can be used to improve far-field ASR and DOA estimation, which is of great value for oceanography, marine engineering, and marine military. In addition, this relation can also be extended to that between the modal interference frequency periodicity and other related parameters in other physical fields for parameter inversion.
