Broadband DOA Estimation Using Frequency Invariant Beamforming - Signal Processing, IEEE Transactions on

چکیده
A new method of direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation for multiple broadband farfield signals is presented. The technique uses a beamspace preprocessing structure based on frequency-invariant beamforming. Specifically, a set of beam-shaping filters focus the received array data in the time domain, thereby avoiding the need for frequency decomposition. Hence, the proposed method is conceptually different from most other broadband DOA estimators, which require frequency decomposition. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the use of the new method and compare it with conventional coherent signal subspace methods.

Broadband Beamspace DOA Estimation: Frequency-Domain and Time-Domain Processing Approaches
Frequency-domain and time-domain processing approaches to direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation for multiple broadband far field signals using beamspace preprocessing structures are proposed. The technique is based on constant mainlobe response beamforming. A set of frequency-domain and time-domain beamformers with constant (frequency independent) mainlobe response and controlled sidelobes is d...
متن کاملEfficient wideband source localization using beamforming invariance technique
AbstructA novel scheme for wideband direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation is proposed. The technique performs coherent signal subspace transformation by a set of judiciously constructed beamforming matrices. The beamformers are chosen to transform each of the narrowband array manifold vectors into the one corresponding to the reference frequency, regardless of the actual spatial distribution of...

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 کاملA real-time DOA-based smart antenna processor
We designed, built, and tested a real-time processor for a direction-of-arrival-based smart antenna GSM 1800 base station with eight half-wavelength spaced antenna elements. Its processing steps include direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation, user identification, tracking, beamforming, and signal reconstruction. We demonstrate that the accuracy of DOA estimation is not of primary concern, but th...
