Abstract
Pulse-to-pulse coherent Doppler sonars are widely used to explore boundary layer characteristics of oceans. Multifrequency pulse-to-pulse coherent Doppler sonars have been proposed in the literature to tackle the velocity ambiguity problem faced by single-frequency systems. A robust algorithm for resolving the velocity ambiguity is crucial in such systems. This paper proposes a method based on the robust Chinese remainder theorem to resolve the velocity ambiguity for multifrequency pulse-to-pulse coherent Doppler sonars. We evaluate the proposed method for resolving the velocity ambiguity in terms of the trial fail rate. The simulations show that the proposed method achieves 1/8 trial failure rate as the reference method. A theoretical criterion is also derived to support the observation that in most cases our proposed method is more robust to estimation errors than the reference method.
