Localization in underwater dispersive channels using the time-frequency-phase continuity of signals

Résumé

Time-frequency representations constitute the main tool for analysis of nonstationary signals arising in real-life systems. One of the most challenging applications of time-frequency representations deal with the analysis of the underwater acoustic signals. Recently, the interest for dispersive channels increased mainly due to the presence of the wide band nonlinear effect at very low frequencies. That is, if we intend to establish an underwater communication link at low frequencies, the dispersion phenomenon has to be taken into account. In such conditions, the application of the conventional time-frequency tools could be a difficult task, mainly because of the nonlinearity and the closeness of the time-frequency components of the impulse response. Moreover, the channel being unknown, any assumption about the instantaneous frequency laws characterizing the channel could not be approximate. In this paper, we introduce a new time-frequency analysis tool that aims to extract the time-frequency components of the channel impulse response. The main feature of this technique is the joint use of time-amplitude, time-frequency, and time-phase information. Tests provided for realistic scenarios and real data illustrate the potential and the benefits of the proposed approach.
