چکیده

A one dimensional (1-D) based tree structure algorithm is proposed for estimating the 2D-DOAs of the signals impinging on a uniform rectangular array. The key idea of the proposed algorithm is to successively utilize the 1-D MUSIC algorithm several times, in tree structure, to estimate the azimuth and the elevation angles independently. Subspace projectors are exploited in conjunction with the 1-D MUSIC algorithms to decompose the received signal into several signals each coordinated by its own 2D-DOA. The pairing of the azimuth estimates and the associated elevation estimates is naturally determined due to the tree structure of the algorithm. key words: 2-D DOA estimation, MUSIC, rectangular antenna array

Signal Subspace Techniques for Source Localization with Circular Sensor Arrays

Estimating the directions-of-arrival (DOAs) of propagating plane waves is a problem of interest in a variety of applications including radar, mobile communications, sonar, and seismology. The widely studied uniform linear array (ULA) can only provide estimates of source bearings relative to the array axis. A planar. array is required if estimates of source azimuth and elevation are required (2D...

Low-complexity estimation of 2D DOA for coherently distributed sources

We consider the estimation of two-dimensional (azimuth and elevation) direction-of-arrival (DOA) using a pair of uniform circular arrays under a coherently distributed source model. Since the coherently distributed source is characterized by four parameters, the nominal azimuth DOA, angular extension of the azimuth DOA, nominal elevation DOA, and angular extension of the elevation DOA, the comp...

Azimuth and Elevation Angle Estimation without any Eigen Decomposition

Recently, Wu et al. proposed a scheme for twodimensional (2-D) direction of arrival angle estimation (DOA) for azimuth and elevation angles, using the propagator method (PM). An advantage of this method over the classical subspace based algorithms, such as ESPRIT and MUSIC, is that it does not apply any eigenvalue decomposition (EVD) to the cross spectral matrix or singular value decomposition ...

Decoupled Nominal 2-D Direction-of -Arrival Estimation Algorithm for Coherently Distributed Source

A computationally efficient method for nominal 2-D (azimuth and elevation) direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation of coherently distributed source impinging on the far field is presented. Since the coherently distributed source is characterized by four parameters, the nominal azimuth DOA, angular spread of the nominal azimuth DOA, the nominal elevation DOA, and angular spread of the nominal elev...
