DOA estimation with hexagonal arrays
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hexagonal arrays are widely used in practice but have received less attention in the optimum array processing literature. In this paper, we show how unitary ESPRIT can be applied to hexagonal arrays for direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation. The resulting estimates exhibit good threshold behavior, and are close to the Cramer-Rao bound above threshold. We also show how to use spatial smoothing in hexagonal arrays for DOA estimation in the presence of coherent signals.
