چکیده
We consider the direction finding problem in time-varying arrays composed of identically oriented subarrays displaced by unknown vector translations. A new eigenstructure-based estimator is proposed for such a class of partly calibrated sensor arrays.

Underdetermined DOA Estimation of Quasi-Stationary Signals Using a Partly-Calibrated Array
Quasi-stationary signals have been widely found in practical applications, which have time-varying second-order statistics while staying static within local time frames. In this paper, we develop a robust direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation algorithm for quasi-stationary signals based on the Khatri-Rao (KR) subspace approach. A partly-calibrated array is considered, in which some of the senso...
متن کاملDecoupled Location Parameter Estimation of 3-D Near-Field Sources in a Uniform Circular Array using the Rank Reduction Algorithm
An algorithm is presented for estimating the 3-D location (i.e., azimuth angle, elevation angle, and range) of multiple sources with a uniform circular array (UCA) consisting of an even number of sensors. Recently the rank reduction (RARE) algorithm for partly-calibrated sensor arrays was developed. This algorithm is applicable to sensor arrays consisting of several identically oriented and cal...

A new four elements compact antenna array is presented and discussed to achieve enhanced phase resolution without sacrificing the array output power. This structure inspired by the Ormia Ochracea’s coupled ears. The analogy between this insect acute directional hearing capabilities and the electrically compact antenna array is used to enhance the array sensitivity to direction of arrival estima...
متن کاملDirection Finding With Partly Calibrated Uniform Linear Arrays
A new method for direction finding with partly calibrated uniform linear arrays (ULAs) is presented. It is based on the conventional estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT) by modeling the imperfections of the ULAs as gain and phase uncertainties. For a fully calibrated array, it reduces to the conventional ESPRIT algorithm. Moreover, the direction-of-arriv...
متن کاملIdentifiability Issues for Rot at ionally Invariant Arrays
The popular ESPRIT algorithm provides a computationally eficient approach for direction of arrival (DOA) estimation in situations where the sensor array is composed of two identical translated subarrays. One of the key advantages of ESPRIT is that the subarrays need not be calibrated in order to obtain the DOA estimates. In this paper, the problem of DOA estimation using sensor arrays composed ...
