Abstract

This paper deals with a method of transmitting depth information of a high-speed underwater vehicle. The depth information signal transmitted from the high-speed mobile object is received with high frequency variability. In the proposed method, we apply not only frequency synchronization but also additional synchronization on the time axis like the existing method. In the case of a Doppler frequency bank with less resolution than the conventional method through simulations performed in the environment moving up to 50 kn, and the depth information is recovered using the proposed method, the error rate of 6 % ~ 9 % is reduced to 0.2 % ~ 1 %.

본 논문은 수중 고속 이동체의 심도 정보를 전송하는 방법을 다룬다. 고속 이동체로부터 전송되는 심도 정보신호는 높은 주파수 변동성을 갖고 수신된다. 제안한 방법에서는 기존의 방법처럼 주파수 동기화뿐만 아니라 시간 축에서 추가로 동기화 하는 방법을 적용하였다. 최대 50 kn로 이동하는 환경에서 수행된 모의실험을 통하여 기존의 방법보다 낮은 해상도를 갖는 도플러 주파수 뱅크를 형성하고, 제안한 방법을 사용하여 심도 정보를 복구한 경우 기존에 6 % ~ 9 %이었던 오류율이 0.2 % ~ 1 %로 낮아진 오류 성능을 나타내었다.
