description This paper proposes a novel autoencoder-based neural network for compressing and reconstructing underwater acoustic signals collected by Directional Frequency Analysis and Recording sonobuoys. To improve both signal compression rates and reconstruction performance, we integrate Residual Vector Quantization and a Compensation Module into the decoding process to effectively compensate for quantization errors. Additionally, an unstructured pruning technique is applied to the encoder to minimize computational load and parameters, addressing the battery limitations of sonobuoys. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method reduces the data transmission size by approximately 31.25% compared to the conventional autoencoder-based method. Moreover, the spectral mean square errors are reduced by 60.58% for continuous wave signals and 55.25% for linear frequency modulation signals under realistic air channel simulations.
