Comparison of DoA Estimation Algorithms in SDMA System

چکیده
With Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA) schemes employing digital signal processing algorithms in its smart antenna systems, it is possible to improve the system capacity of modern wireless communication systems by enabling user’s angular separation. Angular separation ability enhances reception in Signal-of-Interest direction and minimizes interference in Signal-of-Not-Interest direction. Direction of Arrival (DoA) algorithms are used for estimation of a number of incident plane waves on the antenna array and their incidence angles. This paper compares performance of three DoA algorithms: MUSIC, root-MUSIC and Capon applied on the uniform linear array in the presence of uncorrelated white noise. The simulation results show that MUSIC outperformed root-MUSIC and Capon in both required number of snapshots and number of array elements as well as in signal-to-noise ratio requirements.

Application of algorithms for DOA estimation and beamforming to infrared photodiode arrays
In this paper we present a novel infrared communication system for large cells and low user mobility. The proposed transmitter technique allows nearly perfect direction-of-arrival (DoA) estimation in time division multiple access (TDMA) environments only with three photodiodes. Using a photodiode array we show that known algorithms for DoA-estimation can be applied in spatial division multiple ...

Direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation of audio signals is critical in different areas, including electronic war, sonar, etc. The beamforming methods like Minimum Variance Distortionless Response (MVDR), Delay-and-Sum (DAS), and subspace-based Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) are the most known DOA estimation techniques. The mentioned methods have high computational complexity. Hence using...
متن کاملUpdating Directions of Arrival in a GSM-Based SDMA
In a space division multiple access (SDMA) mobile radio system, diierent mobile users use the same spectrum and are separated only by the directions of arrival (DOAs) of their signals at the base station. A critical task is therefore the estimation of the DOAs. When the users move around, the DOAs are time variable, which means that they must be tracked after their initial estimation. Using sub...

This paper proceeds directions of arrival (DOA) estimation by a linear array. These years, some algorithms, e.g. Khatri-Rao approach, Nested array, Dynamic array have been proposed for estimating more DOAs than sensors. These algorithms can merely estimate uncorrelated sources. For Khatri-Rao approach, this is due to the fact that Khatri-Rao product discard the non-diagonal entries of the corre...
متن کاملEfficient Doa Tracking for Tdma-based Sdma Mobile Communications
In this paper, we discuss subspace tracking algorithms for DOA estimation that take a burst-wise data flow as it naturally occurs in systems using a TDMA component into account. This leads to a matrix model rather than to the well known snapshot vector model for the sensor array outputs. Unfortunately, many existing algorithms take advantage of the vector model and do either not support the mat...
