This method can accuracy estimate DOA using one snapshot modified data, called the temporal and spatial two-dimensional vector reconstruction （TSR） method. The key idea is to apply the D3 approach which can extract the signal of given frequency but null out other frequency signals in temporal domain. Then the spatial vector reconstruction processing is used to estimate the angle of the spatial coherent signal source based on extract signal data. Compared with the common temporal and spatial processing approach, the TSR method has a lower computational load, higher real-time performance, robustness and angular accuracy of DOA. The proposed algorithm can be directly applied to the phased array radar of coherent pulses. Simulation results demonstrate the performance of the proposed technique.展开更多

The method is based on a spe- cific midamble assignment strategy, which results in a cyclic Toeplitz midamble-matrix in the linear equation of the received data vectors. A Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)-based algorithm is used to obtain the estimate of the uplink multi-user space-time channels. Furthermore, the estimated space-time channel is applied to the identification of multi-paths for each user, and Direction Of Arrival (DOA) estimation for each path is carried out by using the extracted spatial signature vector. Aside from the simplicity in computation, the proposed di- rection of arrival estimation method can effectively resolve multi-paths regardless of the correlation and angle separations of the multi-paths.展开更多

High resolution localization needs to employ jointly two sorts of high resolution estimators, time-delay estimator and Direction Of Arrival (DOA) estimator, both of which are tough problems attracting many signal processing researchers. There is also another difficulty that is to pair two groups of parameters in timedelay and DOA domains. In underwater environment, multiple sources localization research faces more difficulties because of the long duration emitted wave, limit aperture of array, and short data record of echoes. In this paper, an new extended ESPRIT (Estimation of Signal Parameters via Rotational Invariance Technique) method is presented. With a single echo wave, both time-delay and DOA parameters of multiple sources are estimated simultaneously.No additional pairing algorithm is needed to obtain the source locations. The performance of the new estimators and the probability of correct pairing is given by computer simulations, andthe results shows that good estimation can be obtained in low SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) for multiple sources localization.展开更多
