摘要: 针对水下航行器对目标期望导引部位精确成像的需求, 首次尝试将多输入多输出(MIMO)声呐成像应用于水下航行器的声自导平台, 旨在有限孔径条件下提高水下航行器声自导平台主动成像的分辨率, 获取清晰图像以引导水下航行器判断目标期望导引部位。结合声自导平台对MIMO声呐收发基阵进行讨论, 并通过仿真证明了MIMO声呐可等效为更大孔径的虚拟单输入多输出(SIMO)声呐, 兼具高于传统SIMO声呐的角度分辨率与小体积的优势。使用解卷积处理可以有效提高MIMO声呐的角度分辨率和距离分辨率, 同时显著抑制角度维和距离维旁瓣。文章创新点在于根据声自导平台设计收发阵型和Costas编码发射信号, 对目标散射回波进行处理, 验证了解卷积MIMO声呐高分辨成像方法在声自导平台上的可行性, 为MIMO声呐高分辨成像提供了新的技术参考和实现路径。Abstract: To address the demand for precise imaging of the desired guidance part of a target by an undersea vehicle, this paper attempted to apply multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO) sonar imaging to the acoustic homing platform of an underwater vehicle for the first time. The paper aimed to improve the resolution of active imaging of the acoustic homing platform under limited aperture conditions and obtain clear images to guide the underwater vehicle in determining the desired guidance part of the target. The MIMO sonar transceiver array configuration was discussed in combination with the acoustic homing platform. Simulation results demonstrate that the MIMO sonar can be equivalent to a virtual single-input multiple-output(SIMO) sonar with a larger aperture, possessing both higher angular resolution than traditional SIMO sonar and the advantage of compact size. Deconvolution processing can effectively improve the angular and range resolutions of the MIMO sonar while significantly suppressing sidelobes in both angular and range dimensions. In this paper, the transceiver array and Costas-coded transmission signals are designed based on the acoustic homing platform to process target scattering echoes. The feasibility of the high-resolution imaging method for deconvolution MIMO sonar on the acoustic homing platform is validated. This paper provides a new technical reference and implementation path for high-resolution imaging of MIMO sonar.
