Optimal Deployment of Vector Sensor Nodes in Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks [PDF]
Underwater acoustic sensor networks have recently attracted considerable attention as demands on the Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT) increase. In terms of efficiency, it is important to achieve the maximum communication coverage using a limited ...

Vector Sensor Arrays in Underwater Acoustic Applications [PDF]
Traditionally, ocean acoustic signals have been acquired using hydrophones, which measure the pressure field and are typically omnidirectional. A vector sensor measures both the acoustic pressure and the three components of particle velocity. Assembled into an array, a vector sensor array (VSA) improves spatial filtering capabilities when compared with

Acoustic vector-sensor array processing. [PDF]
Existing theory yields useful performance criteria and processing techniques for acoustic pressure-sensor arrays. Acoustic vector-sensor arrays, which measure particle velocity and pressure, offer significant potential but require fundamental changes to algorithms and performance assessment.

Vector sensor array based higher order acoustic sensors
Higher order acoustic sensors rely on the spatial gradients of the acoustic pressure field for achieving high directivity. Two practical methods for realizing higher order acoustic sensors using acoustic vector sensor arrays are presented. The first method relies on short linear arrays of closely spaced 2-D vector sensors. The second method is based on

A novel calibration method for Acoustic Vector Sensor
The Acoustic Vector Sensor can measure both pressure and particle velocity information of acoustic field at a point in space. By using the acoustic pressure and particle velocity information, a single AVS can get the unbiased estimation of target's bearing.

Blind Calibration for Acoustic Vector Sensor Arrays
In this paper, we present a calibration algorithm for acoustic vector sensors arranged in a uniform linear array configuration. To do so, we do not use a calibrator source, instead we leverage the Toeplitz blocks present in the data covariance matrix. We develop linear estimators for estimating sensor gains and phases.

Acoustic vector-sensor array performance [PDF]
Classical hydrophones measure pressure only, but acoustic vector-sensors also measure particle velocity. Velocity measurements can increase array gain and resolve ambiguities, but make vector-sensor arrays more difficult to analyze. This thesis derives a new set of useful performance measures for acoustic vector-sensor arrays.

Modal beamforming for circular acoustic vector sensor arrays
Vector sensors are directional receivers that measure the vectorial particle velocity associated with an acoustic wave rather than the scalar pressure. Therefore, arrays of vector sensors possess some desirable directional properties compared to conventional arrays of pressure sensors.

Distinguishing multiple surface ships using one acoustic vector sensor based on a convolutional neural network [PDF]
A direction of arrival (DOA) estimation method based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) using an acoustic vector sensor is proposed to distinguish multiple surface ships in a selected frequency band.
