Abstract
In order to solve the problem that the peak of the weak target in the azimuthal energy spectrum is lower than the background when using the passive sonar systems to detect targets, and it is unable to identify the target azimuth visually and quickly, a post-processing method that can identify the target azimuth and perform local enhancement is proposed in this paper. This method uses background equalization technology to compress the dynamic range of the energy spectrum. The background threshold of energy spectrum after normalization processing is estimated, and target azimuth is extracted. Combined with the background threshold, the correction coefficient is constructed in segments to achieve the local enhancement at the target azimuth. This method is able to distinguish targets and background visually and quickly, has the function of highlighting and identifying the azimuth of the target based on simulation and measured data.
