Abstract

There are many underwater passive algorithms used to determine the range of a target like a diver, using its acoustic signals which are radiated through underwater environment. In this paper, we introduce a new underwater diver range estimation algorithm based on shallow water cavitation. Through this algorithm we apply diver's bubble oscillation frequency and ocean surface bubble's behaviour as two new carrier frequencies for our proposed method. Then, we utilize a dual frequency technique with the above new carrier frequencies, due to its robustness to shallow water noise, in time-frequency domain, yields to a new passive range estimation algorithm. We demonstrate through real data simulations that this algorithm is suitable for passive diver range estimation in shallow water environment. We used SWeIIEx-96 experiment data to compare our simulation result.
