چکیده

In this paper, environmental parameter estimation for a shallow ocean is addressed by using wideband shipping noise as a source of acoustic energy. Unknown locations of the broadband acoustic sources are estimated simultaneously with the ocean depth using the approximate Conditional Maximum Likelihood Estimator (CMLE). This procedure is tested via computer simulations and applied to the experimental hydrophone towed array data.

Low-frequency Broadband Noise Correlation Processing in Deep-water

Correlation processing of ocean ambient noise has been shown to reveal ocean environmental information. While theory confirms the efficacy of this procedure, experimental confirmation has been limited to either shallow water scenarios or the shipping noise regime. The basic issue of the potential utility of this procedure is the time needed to build up the relevant cross-correlation peaks that ...

Performance Bounds on Matched-Field Methods

Matched-field methods concern estimation of source location and/or ocean environmental parameters by exploiting full wave modeling of acoustic waveguide propagation. Typical estimation performance demonstrates two fundamental limitations. First, sidelobe ambiguities dominate the estimation at low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), leading to a threshold performance behavior. Second, most matched-fiel...

The Development of Maximum Likelihood Estimation Approaches for Adaptive Estimation of Free Speed and Critical Density in Vehicle Freeways

The performance of many traffic control strategies depends on how much the traffic flow models have been accurately calibrated. One of the most applicable traffic flow model in traffic control and management is LWR or METANET model. Practically, key parameters in LWR model, including free flow speed and critical density, are parameterized using flow and speed measurements gathered by inductive ...

Windowing Effects of Short Time Fourier Transform on Wideband Array Signal Processing Using Maximum Likelihood Estimation

During the last two decades, Maximum Likelihood estimation (ML) has been used to determine Direction Of Arrival (DOA) and signals propagated by the sources, using narrowband array signals. The algorithm fails in the case of wideband signals. As an attempt by the present study to overcome the problem, the array outputs are transformed into narrowband frequency bins, using short time Fourier tran...
