The problem for parameters estimation of the received signals impinging on array sensors has long been of great research Interest in a great variety of applications, such as radar, sonar, and land mobile communications systems. Conventional subspace-based algorithms, such as MUSIC and ESPRIT, require an extensive computation of inverse matrix and eigen-decomposition In this paper, we propose a new parameters estimation algorithm via nonlinear minimization, which is simplified computationally and estimates signal parameters simultaneously.

본 논문에서는 수동 소나 시스템을 위한 수중 음향 센서 결함 탐지 기법을 제안하였다. 일반적으로 수동 소나 시스템에서는 수십개의 음향 센서를 통해 얻은 음향 신호를 이용하여 배열 신호처리 기법을 이용해 처리된 신호를 협대역 또는 광대역 분석을 위한 2차원 영상 형태로 전시한다. 운용 소프트웨어에서 전시되는 탐지 결과는 배열 신호처리를 통해 누적된 결과값을 전시하기 때문에, 단일 센서 채널의 결함 또는 고장에 따른 신호의 이상 여부를 판단하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 인접 채널간 실효치 비교 및 실효치교차율(Root Mean Square Crossing-Rate, RMSCR) 분석기반 센서 자동 결함 탐지 기법을 제안하고, 결함 센서 채널에 대한 처리 기법을 비교 분석하였다. 제안된 기법의 성능 분석을 위하여 일부 연안 지역에서 실제 운용 중인 센서 배열을 통해 획득된 신호를 이용하여 결함 탐지 정확도를 측정하고, 결함 처리 기법의 성능을 비교하였다. 실험을 통해 제안된 기법이 높은 RMS의 주변소음 환경에서도 높은 결함 탐지 정확도를 보였으며, 결함 처리 기법으로는 0으로 설정 처리 기법이 가장 높은 성능을 보였다.

해안 수중 감시를 위하여 분산센서망를 해안에 설치하고, 이를 이용하여 표적을 탐지하고 표적의 위치를 추정하는 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. Zhou 등은 표적 탐지만 가능한 간단한 구조의 센서들로 구성된 분산센서망에서 표적을 탐지한 센서들의 위치 정보를 활용하여 표적의 위치를 추정하는 기법을 제안하였다. Zhou 등이 제안한 기법은 다른 기존의 기법에 비해 표적탐지 신호의 전파모델에 대한 파라미터들을 별도로 추정할 필요가 없고, 연산량이 적으며, 분산센서망에서 적은 량의 데이터만 송수신하여도 된다. 그러나 Zhou 기법은 표적의 위치 추정오차가 크다. Ryu는 추정오차를 줄이기 위하여 Zhou 기법을 수정하였다. 수정된 Zhou 기법은 Zhou 기법보다 추정성능이 향상되었지만, 여전히 비교적 큰 추정오차를 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 수정된 Zhou 기법으로 구한 표적의 방위각을 나타내는 직선과 표적을 탐지한 센서들과의 기하학적 구조를 고려한 표적위치 추정기법을 제안하였으며, 수정된 Zhou 기법에 기반을 두고 있다. 제안한 기법의 표적위치 추정성능이 Zhou 기법과 수정된 Zhou 기법 보다 향상되었음을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 확인하였다.

The aim of the work described in this paper is to develop a complex underground acoustic system which detects and localizes the origin of an underground hammering sound using an array of hydrophones located about 100m underground. Three different methods for the sound localization will be presented, a time-delay method, a power-attenuation method and a hybrid method. In the time-delay method, the cross correlation of the signals received from the array of sensors is used to calculate the time delays between those signals. In the power-attenuation method, the powers of the received signals provide a measure of the distances of the source from the sensors. In the hybrid method, both informations of time-delays and power-ratios are coupled together to produce better performance of position estimation. A new acoustic imaging technique has been developed for improving the hybrid method. This new acoustic imaging method shows the multi-dimensional distribution of the normalized cost function, so as to indicate the trend of the minimizing direction toward the source location. For each method the sound localization is carried out in three dimensions underground. The distance between the true and estimated origins of the source is 28m for a search area of radius 250m.

본 논문은 수중함에 부착되는 소나(sonar)에서 소음차단을 위하여 일반적으로 사용되는 다층구조의 설계 최적화를 수행하였다. 설계 목표로서는 자함 자체 기계가진 진동으로 인하여 음향센서에 유기되는 음압이 낮도록, 그리고 외부 표적 함정으로부터 방사되어오는 음에 기인한 소나의 수신 음압이 운용주파수 대역에서 높고 고른 음압을 갖도록 하는 두 가지 상반된 설계 목표를 고려하였다. 설계 변수로서는 다층구조 각층의 재료 물성치 선택에 따른 이산변수와 각 층의 두께 변수인 연속변수를 함께 고려하여, 각 변수의 최적화 과정에 따른 영향도를 분석 하였고, 최적화 방법으로서는 진화알고리즘을 적용하였다. 또한 최적화 과정으로서는 두 가지 목표를 각각 고려하는 경우와 동시에 두 가지 복합적인 목표를 고려하는 경우에 대한 설계 최적화를 수행하여, 각 경우에 대한 설계 목표치의 최대화 정도를 분석하였다.

We propose a new technique for autonomous navigation and travelling of mobile robot based on ultrasonic sensors through the narrow labyrinth that leave only distance of a few centimeters on each side between the guides and the robot. In our current implementation the ultrasonic sensor system fires at a rate of 100 ms, that is, each of the 8 sensors fires once during each 100 ms interval. This is a very good firing rate, implemented here for optimal performance. This paper presents an extensively tested and verified solution to the problem of obstacle avoidance. Our solution is based on the optimal placement of ultrasonic sensors at strategic locations around the robot. Both the sensor location and the associated navigation algorithm are defined in such a way that only the accurate radial sonar data is used for accurate travelling.

Localization of mobile agent within a sensing network is a fundamental requirement for many applications, using networked navigating systems such as the sonar-sensing system or the visual-sensing system. To fully utilize the strengths of both the sonar and visual sensing systems, This paper describes a networked sensor-based navigation method in an indoor environment for an autonomous mobile robot which can navigate and avoid obstacle. In this method, the self-localization of the robot is done with a model-based vision system using networked sensors, and nonstop navigation is realized by a Kalman filter-based STSF(Space and Time Sensor Fusion) method. Stationary obstacles and moving obstacles are avoided with networked sensor data such as CCD camera and sonar ring. We will report on experiments in a hallway using the Pioneer-DX robot. In addition to that, the localization has inevitable uncertainties in the features and in the robot position estimation. Kalman filter scheme is used for the estimation of the mobile robot localization. And Extensive experiments with a robot and a sensor network confirm the validity of the approach.

In this paper, optimum design of distributed detection is considered for a parallel sensor network system consisting of a fusion center and two passive sonar nodes. AND rule and OR rule are employed as the fusion rules of the sensor network. For the fusion rules, it is shown that a threshold rule of each sensor node has uniformly most powerful properties. Optimum threshold for each sensor is investigated that maximizes the probability of detection under the constraint of a specified probability of false alarm. It is also investigated through numerical experiments how signal strength, false alarm probability, and the distance between two sensor nodes affect the system detection performances.
