This paper presents a localization method for an underwater multitonal source by using a vertically distributed system in deep water. The system is composed of two kinds of nodes. One is a node at large depth, and the other is a node covering most of the water column. The former and latter are utilized to estimate the source range and depth, respectively. Specifically, the proposed method estimates the source range by matching the spatial arrival angle measured by the first kind of node with the replicas calculated by the acoustic model. Based on the estimation value of the source range, the second kind of node is utilized to estimate the source depth by using an incoherent time reversal method. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through numerical simulations. The effects of the measurement error and the sound speed profile mismatch on the performance of the proposed method are also analyzed.
