Performance Study of Impact-Point Estimation Systems Using Two Types of Acoustic Sensor Arrangement Methods

الملخص EN

In this study, a shooting experiment is carried out with an acoustic sensor array that can detect shock wave at high-sound pressures and withstand the shock wave of the bullet.

Delta- and H-type of acoustic sensor units are constructed.

The measured values of the temporal arrival differences estimated based on the distance between the acoustic sensors are then compared with the theoretical calculations according to the types of bullets and shooting distance.

In addition, an impact-point estimation system (IPES) is fabricated, which comprises delta- and H-type sensor units, a target, signal processing device, and an impact point estimation algorithm.

The impact points on the target caused by the shooting experiment are compared with those calculated using the impact point estimation algorithm.

Finally, the mean absolute error MAE between the actual and the calculated impact-point coordinates is calculated, and the performances of the delta- and H-type IPES are evaluated.
