Abstract

In this paper, an enhanced approach for sound localization is proposed, which fuses automatic extraction of array signal characteristic frequencies and adaptive weighting. The method refines the autoregressive power spectral estimation algorithm and improves density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise algorithm for characteristic frequency extraction. Adaptive weighting technique is introduced to alleviate the problem of frequency mismatch in the localization process. The initial weight of narrowband signals is calculated and normalized using the frequency domain amplitude integration of narrowband signals, followed by adaptive threshold correction to eliminate invalid narrowband signal weights. The adaptive weight vector improves the localization method’s accuracy and interference suppression. The effectiveness and universality of the proposed method are demonstrated with test data from dry transformers and pumps, and its applicability is shown to extend to various spatial spectrum estimation algorithms and deep learning-based sound source localization techniques.Copyright © 2023 ISA.
