Line spectrum detection algorithm based on the phase feature of target radiated noise

In order to improve the performance of line spectrum detection,according to the feature that the underwater target radiated noise containing stable line spectrum,the differences of the phase difference between line spectrum and background noise,a weighted line spectrum detection algorithm based on the phase variance is proposed in frequency domain.After phase difference alignment,the phase variance of line spectrum and the phase of background noise,respectively,are small and big in frequency domain,this method utilizes the weighted statistical algorithm to cumulate the frequency spectrum based on the phase variance,which can restrain the background noise disturbance,and enhance the signal to noise ratio（SNR）.The theory analysis and experimental results both verify that the proposed method can well enhance the energy of line spectrum,restrain the energy of background noise,and have better detection performance under lower SNR.

Statistics Modeling of Shallow Sea Ambient Noise and Its Applications in Low-frequency Line Spectrum Detection

The noise's statistical characteristics are very important for signal detection.In this paper,the ambient noise statistical characteristics are investigated by using the recorded noise data in sea trials first,and the results show that the generalized Gaussian distribution is a suitable model for the ambient noise modeling.Thereafter,the optimal detector based on maximum likelihood ratio can be deduced,and the asymptotic detector is also derived under weak signal assumption.The detector's performance is verified by using numerical simulation,and the results showthat the optimal and asymptotic detectors outperform the conventional correlation-integration system due to accuracy modeling of ambient noise.

Improving coherent averaging line spectrum detection with phase interpolation and compensation

For the purpose of resolving the problem of performance deterioration introduced by inaccurate phase compensation in existing coherent averaging line spectrum detectors, a modified coherent detector is proposed. The three point interpolation in frequency domain is applied to obtain accurate estimate of phase difference between segments when the segmented length is not an integral multiple of the signal period. Then the segmented data are multiplied by a complex coefficient to remove the phase difference and synchronize the phases of all the segments before coherent averaging. Theoretical analysis shows that there will be a gain of 3.9 dB at most by using the modified detector. The detection performance of the incoher- ent averaging power spectrum detector （AVGPR）, the phase coherent averaging detector, the modified coherent averaging detector are compared with each other by computer simulations. The results coincide basically with the theoretical analysis, which show the superiority of the modified detector to the former two detectors.
