Combined Improved CEEMDAN and Wavelet Transform Sea Wave Interference Suppression

Abstract

Cross water–air interface acoustic and electromagnetic integrated communication (AEIC) technology refers to an underwater speaker that excites the water surface micro-amplitude wave (WSAW) on the water’s surface, and millimeter wave radar detects the vibrations of the WSAW to realize the transmission of information. The research on cross-media communication meets many challenges due to the large amplitude of the water surface disturbance and the small amplitude of the WSAW. In this paper, a novel sea wave interference suppression method based on improved complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN) and wavelet transform (WT) is presented. This method divides the phase change into different intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) and obtains a reconstructed scale of the WSAW signal through wavelet decomposition and correlation procession to separate the WSAW signal and the sea wave interference. It is proved to be better than the reference filtering method by experiment. By using this novel method, the bit error rate (BER) of the communication system can be reduced effectively.
