Comparative study of IQML and MODE for direction-of-arrival estimation

چکیده
We present a comparative study of using the IQML (iterative quadratic maximum likelihood) algorithm and the MODE (method of direction estimation) algorithm for direction-of-arrival estimation with a uniform linear array. The consistent condition and the theoretical mean-squared error for the parameter estimates of IQML are presented. The computational complexities of both algorithms are also compared. We show that the frequency estimates obtained via MODE are asymptotically statistically e cient, while those obtained via IQML are almost always inconsistent and hence ine cient. We also show that the amount of computations required by IQML is usually much larger than that required by MODE, especially for low signal-to-noise ratio and large number of snapshots.

Modified IQML and a statistically efficient method for direction estimation without eigendecomposition
This paper deals with direction estimation of signals impinging on a uniform linear sensor array. A well known algorithm for this problem is IQML. Unfortunately, the IQML estimates are in general biased, especially in noisy scenarios. We propose a modification of IQML (MIQML) that gives consistent estimates at approximately the same computational cost. In addition, an algorithm with an estimati...

One of the important issues in many of array systems such as Radar, Sonar, Mobile, and satellite telecommunications is the estimation of DOA of narrowband received signal. CRB is very important in evaluation of parameter estimation. CRB is the lower bound estimation error variance for any unbiased estimation. In this paper, the array antenna with equal distance arrays is extended in two separat...

متن کاملMethods for blind equalization and resolution of overlapping echoes of unknown shape
This paper considers the related problems of using an uncalibrated antenna array to 1) recover an unknown signal transmitted over an unknown (but stationary) multipath channel and 2) resolve overlapping pulse echoes with unknown shape. Unlike recently proposed multichannel blind equalization techniques, the methods described herein employ a model based on physical channel parameters rather than...
