Denoising Method for Underwater Acoustic Signals Based on Sparse Decomposition

Abstract

Abstract In order to improve the problem of relatively low signal-to-noise in the extraction of underwater acoustic signals under the background of strong interference, a sparse decomposition-based underwater acoustic signal denoising method is proposed. The main work is as follows: First, the signal is decomposed into a complete dictionary that can reflect the characteristics of the signal environment through the singular value decomposition method. Then, a cyclic shift is used to construct a signal matrix and an initial dictionary. A newly generated super-complete dictionary is obtained through training and updating. The atoms in the dictionary matrix are correlated and orthogonalized by an adaptive orthogonal matching pursuit method. Finally, the linear combination of the atoms that can best reflect the characteristic information of the underwater acoustic signal is used to reconstruct the underwater acoustic signal to achieve the purpose of denoising. The noise filtering underwater noise signal is simulated and compared with the traditional filtering method. The simulation results show that this method improves the signal-to-noise ratio of the signal after sparse decomposition and reconstruction of the original underwater acoustic signal, and has a certain denoising ability under strong noise and various types of reverberation interference.
