Abstract

Ultrasonic sensors are inexpensive and provide highly accurate measurements, even with simple hardware configurations, facilitating their use in various fields. When multiple ultrasonic sensors exist in the measurement space, crosstalk occurs due to other nodes, which leads to incorrect measurements. Crosstalk includes not only receiving homogeneous signals from other nodes, but also overlapping by other signals and interference by heterogeneous signals. This paper proposes using frequency sweep keying modulation to provide robustness against overlap and a faster region-based convolutional neural network (R-CNN) demodulator to reduce the interference caused by heterogeneous signals. The demodulator works by training Faster R-CNN with the spectrograms of various received signals and classifying the received signals using Faster R-CNN. Experiments implementing an ultrasonic crosstalk environment showed that, compared to on–off keying (OOK), phase-shift keying (PSK), and frequency-shift keying (FSK), the proposed method can implement CDMA even with shorter codes and is robust against overlap. Compared to correlation-based frequency sweep keying, the time-of-flight error was reduced by approximately 75%. While the existing demodulators did not consider heterogeneous signals, the proposed method ignored approximately 99% of the OOK and PSK signals and approximately 79% of the FSK signals. The proposed method performed better than the existing methods and is expected to be used in various applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
