Abstract:

The vector submerged buoy array is an important anti-submarine warning sonar system, and its precisely positioning capability is the important information support for anti-submarine warning. This paper takes geometrical dilution of precision (GDOP) as the evaluation index of positioning system performance. GDOP expressions of direction of arrival (DOA) location and time difference of arrival (TDOA) location with multi buoys are deduced. The effects of different number of buoys on positioning performance are compared by simulation. Array radius sensitivity, measuring error sensitivity, position error sensitivity and effective range with different station geometry are also compared by simulation. Combing with the real application environment of the submerged buoy array, the Comparison results of simulation show that the four-element Y shape array is the optimal disposition of vector submerged buoy array based on GDOP.

Key words: optimal disposition, direction of arrival (DOA) location, time difference of arrival (TDOA) location
