Optimization Research for Receivers' Arrangement of LBL Acoustic Positioning System with PSO Algorithm

Three optimization models were proposed according to the problems emerged from self-propelled model test. And the object function to evaluated acoustic positioning's precision of some given receiver's arrays was created. The genetic algorithm code to solve this optimization problem was developed and validated by optimization model 1 afterwards. The optimum arrangements for model 1 and model 3 were acquired by calculating such code. The cross arrays was certificated to be the optimum ones. One new method to arrange acoustic receivers in self-propelled model test was drafted.
