  • 基于3D聚类提取特征,提升信号定位鲁棒性。
  • 仿真训练模型在真实环境误差仅18.2米,表现优异。
  • 参数少33.5倍,适合复杂场景下的实时应用。

无线电信号源定位在搜救、干扰检测和敌对活动监控中至关重要。无人机相较于地面方法,具备自主三维导航与高空信号捕获优势。深度学习虽提升了室外场景定位精度,但常因仿真数据与现实差距大而表现下降。为此,本文提出改进的两射线传播模型,更准确模拟真实传播环境。针对射频源定位,设计了3D聚类基础的RealAdaptRNet模型,通过3D聚类特征提取实现鲁棒定位。实验表明,该增强型两射线模型在仿真中更贴近真实传播。所提模型仅用仿真数据训练,在AERPAW物理测试平台上验证时,平均定位误差为18.2米。模型参数量仅为原模型的1/33.5,且在多种飞行轨迹下表现稳定,具备强泛化能力,适用于真实场景。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Localization of radio frequency (RF) sources has critical applications, including search and rescue, jammer detection, and monitoring of hostile activities. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) offer significant advantages for RF source localization (RFSL) over terrestrial methods, leveraging autonomous 3D navigation and improved signal capture at higher altitudes. Recent advancements in deep learning (DL) have further enhanced localization accuracy, particularly for outdoor scenarios. DL models often face challenges in real-world performance, as they are typically trained on simulated datasets that fail to replicate real-world conditions fully. To address this, we first propose the Enhanced Two-Ray propagation model, reducing the simulation-to-reality gap by improving the accuracy of propagation environment modeling. For RFSL, we propose the 3D Cluster-Based RealAdaptRNet, a DL-based method leveraging 3D clustering-based feature extraction for robust localization. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed Enhanced Two-Ray model provides superior accuracy in simulating real-world propagation scenarios compared to conventional free-space and two-ray models. Notably, the 3D Cluster-Based RealAdaptRNet, trained entirely on simulated datasets, achieves exceptional performance when validated in real-world environments using the AERPAW physical testbed, with an average localization error of 18.2 m. The proposed approach is computationally efficient, utilizing 33.5 times fewer parameters, and demonstrates strong generalization capabilities across diverse trajectories, making it highly suitable for real-world applications.
