Abstract
Hydrophone arrays are generally used in modern sonar systems in which beam forming plays an important role. This paper analyzes the beam space MUSIC (multiple signal classification) algorithm for the weakly correlated sources according to changes in the statistical properties of signal and noise, then estimates the azimuth of multi-sources using array element space MUSIC algorithm and beam space MUSIC algorithm accurately, respectively. Finally, problems such as the computation cost of the algorithms, SNR resolution threshold and estimation deviation are discussed based on simulation tests. A conclusion could be drawn that beam space MUSIC algorithm is an effective way to resolve multiple targets in small angle domain.
