High-resolution DOA estimation achieved by a single acoustic vector sensor under anisotropic noise

Open Access Research Article 2023

Applied Acoustics

Diao, Y. ,Yu, L., Jiang, W.
An AVS measurement system is designed, and an Anisotropic Sparse Bayesian Learning (SBL) method (the A-SBL method) is proposed to model and estimate the anisotropic noise of the AVS system for use in (among other things) underwater noise detection.
