uniform linear array (ula)-based tapped-delay line (tdl) structure has good performance metrics when the signal sources are located at the middle angles. it offers poor performance when the signal sources are close to the array endfire. in this paper, a new approach is proposed which offers higher performance and desired beamforming on tdl structure when the wideband uncorrelated radio sources ...

in order to estimate doa of coherent sources, shirvani moghaddam and keshavarz nasab proposed a method based on uniform linear array configuration that first determines the number of noncoherent sources and then estimates the doa of coherent signals in each group. for estimating doas close to the array endfire, ula does not perform well. as the main goal of this investigation, using the propose...

This paper reports on investigations into the performance of a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless communication system employing a uniform linear array (ULA) at the transmitter and either a uniform linear array (ULA) or a uniform circular array (UCA) antenna at the receiver. The transmitter is assumed to be surrounded by scattering objects while the receiver is postulated to be free...

This paper reports on investigations into capacity of a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless communication system employing a uniform linear array (ULA) at the transmitter and either a uniform linear array (ULA) or a uniform circular array (UCA) antenna at the receiver. The transmitter is assumed to be surrounded by scattering objects while the receiver is postulated to be free from s...

Due to relatively simple implementation, Uniform Linear Array (ULA) is a popular geometry for array signal processing. Despite this advantage, it does not have a uniform performance in all directions and Angle of Arrival (AOA) estimation performance degrades considerably in the angles close to endfire. In this article, a new configuration is proposed which can solve this problem. Proposed Array...

A coprime sensor array (CSA) is a non-uniform linear array obtained by interleaving two uniform linear arrays (ULAs) that are undersampled by coprime factors. A CSA provides the resolution of a fully populated ULA of the same aperture using fewer sensors. However, the peak side lobe level in a CSA is higher than the peak side lobe of the equivalent full ULA with the same resolution. Adding more...

Propagation environment and antenna array configuration have significant effect on spatial correlation properties of multipleinput multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communications channels. In this paper the effect of different antenna array geometries on MIMO channel properties is investigated in urban city street grid propagation environment. Four antenna array geometries with the same number o...

In this paper, a novel transformation connecting an arbitrary Planar Array to a virtual Uniform Linear Array (ULA) with a larger number of sensors is proposed. The array orientation, number of sensors and phase characteristics of the virtual array are a function of the array shape of the planar array. The two parameter manifold (azimuth,elevation) of a planar array of N sensors is a conoid surf...
