Abstract
해수면 거칠기에 의해 해수면 산란이 발생하면 통신신호의 주파수 확산과 통신채널 시변동성을 야기하여통신성능을 악화시킨다. 수면 거칠기에 따른 통신채널의 시변동성 차이를 비교하기 위하여 한양대학교 해양음향공학연구실 수조에서 실험을 수행하였다. 수조에서 인위적인 수면 거칠기를 생성하고 대역폭에 따른 차이를 비교하기 위하여 3가지 대역폭을 갖는 통신신호를 사용하였다. 측정된 수면 거칠기는 레일리 파라미터로 변환하여 거칠기에 대한파라미터로써 사용하였으며, 수면 경로의 시변 채널 특성은 도플러 확산과 상관시간을 이용하여 통계적 분석을 수행하였다. 수면 경로의 도플러 확산은 통신신호의 반송 주파수와 대역폭의 영향을 보정한 가중 유효 도플러 확산(Weighted Root Mean Square Doppler spread, 𝑤𝑓𝜎𝜈)을 사용하였다. 수면 경로의 상관시간과 직접 경로와 수면 경로의 에너지 비율을 이용하여 전체 채널의 상관관계를 모의하고 측정된 전체 채널의 상관시간과 비교하였다. 본 연구에서는 해수면 거칠기에 따른 해수면 경로의 시변 채널특성을 이용하여 임의의 해양환경에서 효율적인 통신신호 설계를위한 방법을 제안한다.
Scattering by Sea surface roughness occurs due to sea level roughness, communication performance deteriorates by causing frequency spread in communication signals and time variation in communication channels. In order to compare the difference in time variation of underwater acoustic communication channel according to the surface roughness, an experiment was performed in a tank owned by Hanyang University Ocean Acoustics Lab. Artificial surface roughness was created in the tank and communication signals with three bandwidths were used (8 kHz, 16 kHz, 32 kHz). The measured surface roughness was converted into a Rayleigh parameter and used as a roughness parameter, and statistical analysis was performed on the time-varying channel characteristics of the surface path using Doppler spread and correlation time. For the Doppler spread of the surface path, the Weighted Root Mean Square Doppler spread (𝑤𝑓𝜎𝜈) that corrected the effect of the carrier frequency and bandwidth of the communication signal was used. Using the correlation time of the surface path and the energy ratio of the direct path and the surface path, the correlation of total channels was simulated and compared with the measured correlation time of total channels. In this study, we propose a method for efficient communication signal design in an arbitrary marine environment by using the time-varying characteristics of the sea surface path according to the sea surface roughness.
