Abstract |
Cavitation is a phenomenon caused by vapour cavities that is produced in rapid pressure changes. When the cavitation happened, the sound pressure level of a underwater radiated noise is increased rapidly. As a result, it can increase the probability of the identification or classification of a our warship's acoustic signature by an enemy ship. However, there is a problem that it is hard to precisely detect the occurrence of a cavitation noise. Therefore, this paper presents recent improvements in terms of the cavitation noise measurement by using continuous wavelet transform and DEMON(Detection of Envelope Modulation on Noise) signal processing. Then, we present that the suggested scheme is more suitable for detecting the cavitation than existing algorithms. |
