【Abstract】 A new architecture of distributed buoy network based on acoustic vector sensors has been presented in this paper. In order to explore its performance, algorithms of DOA estimation using a single acoustic vector sensor in different scenarios are studied, and the Cramer-Rao lower bound of the DOA estimator in free space is also derived. Finally, with respect to jointly localize the underwater wideband target in horizontally stratified ocean, a new method based on ray theory is given. Numerical simulations show that the performance of this distributed system depends significantly on the signal to noise ratio at the receivers and it is only applicable to localize the single dominant source.更多还原
