Abstract

The port-starboard ambiguity in the conventional single towed linear array sonar is one of the most deceiving obstacles which exist in the way of development of spatial spectrum estimation. In order to improve the performance of target detection and Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation, this paper proposes a novel spatial spectrum sparse reconstruction method based on multiple beamspace measurements (MBM-SR). An array sparse signal model for manoeuvring towed array is established. Then the Mutual Incoherent Property (MIP) is analyzed to ensure the proposed algorithm possessing better spatial spectrum reconstruction property. Simulation results demonstrate that, compared with Conventional Beam Forming (CBF) algorithm, the proposed algorithm has evident advantage in ambiguity suppression ratio (ASR) and estimation performance.
