Abstract
Synchronization signal detection and time delay estimation are worth studying in underwater acoustic positioning. This paper proposes a signal capture algorithm first, which uses matching filter method with an adaptive dynamic threshold calculated by real time orthogonal sliding correlation. Fractional Fourier Transform (FRFT) is used to re-examine signals over the adaptive threshold and eliminate the false alarm signal for its characteristics which can separate signal and noise at a proper fractional order. Moreover, FRFT is also used to correct the time delay with its characteristics of time shift and frequency shift. The experiment result shows that the algorithm proposed decreases the false alarm probability and time delay error effectively.
