CRB Weighted Source Localization Method Based on Deep Neural Networks in Multi-UAV Network
Bibliographic record
Abstract
With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT) era, the multiunmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) networks have attracted great attention in the fields of source detection and localization. However, as the real-time signal processing performance of the UAV is limited by the computing speed and accuracy of the embedded hardware, the effectiveness of source localization is greatly reduced. Aiming at improving the accuracy and computational efficiency of source localization, a Cramer–Rao bound (CRB) weighted multi-UAV network source localization method is proposed based on the deep neural networks (DNNs) and spatial-spectrum fitting (SSF). The proposed source localization system is composed of UAVs equipped with a radar array. The source location can be achieved using the direction of arrival (DOA) of the source signals of UAVs, but the accuracy and real-time performance of the conventional DOA estimation algorithms are not satisfactory, and the data fusion strategy of the conventional cross-location framework needs further improvement. In the proposed method, a DNN-based SSF, denoted as the deep SSF (DeepSSF), is designed to achieve accurate DOA estimation. In the DeepSSF, the DOA estimation performance is guaranteed by the DNN’s strong nonlinear fitting ability and highly parallel structure. In addition, based on the obtained DOA information, the source is located once by every two UAVs. Finally, the source localization is realized based on the weighted CRB according to the principle that the more the DOA distribution deviates from zero, the lower the estimation accuracy. The simulation results verify the efficiency of the proposed method.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
