Abstract

This work investigates the direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation for a uniform circular acoustic Vector-Sensor Array (UCAVSA) mounted around a cylindrical baffle. The total pressure field and the total particle velocity field near the surface of the cylindrical baffle are analyzed theoretically by applying the method of spatial Fourier transform. Then the so-called modal vector-sensor array signal processing algorithm, which is based on the decomposed wavefield representations, for the UCAVSA mounted around the cylindrical baffle is proposed. Simulation and experimental results show that the UCAVSA mounted around the cylindrical baffle has distinct advantages over the same manifold of traditional uniform circular pressure-sensor array (UCPSA). It is pointed out that the acoustic Vector-Sensor (AVS) could be used under the condition of the cylindrical baffle and that the UCAVSA mounted around the cylindrical baffle could also combine the anti-noise performance of the AVS with spatial resolution performance of array system by means of modal vector-sensor array signal processing algorithms.
