Nowadays adaptive technique allows arrays of any geometry to be used with fast direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimators designed for linear arrays. So the interpolation of data from a given antenna array onto the output of a virtual array is needed before the direction finding technique is applied to the outputs of a uniform linear virtual array (ULVA). In this paper some superresoluntion methods are used to estimate DOA by best-fit transformation matrix T under different nonuniformly spaced array.

This paper presents a non-contact measurement method of vital signal by the use of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) bio-radar system, configured with two antennas that are separated by a certain distance. The direction of arrival (DOA) estimation algorithm for coherent sources was applied to detect vital signals coming from different spatial angles. The proposed MIMO bio-radar system was composed of two identical transceivers sharing single VCO with a PLL. In order to verify the performance of the system, the DOA estimation experiment was completed with respect to the human target at angles varying between $-50^{\circ}$ and $50^{\circ}$ where the bio-radar system was placed at distances (corresponding to 50 cm and 95 cm) in front of a human target. The proposed MIMO bio-radar system can successfully find the direction of a human target.

지면에 가까이 있는 비행체나 수면에 가까이 있는 수중 운동체에서 도래하는 신호는 직접파와 반사파로 구성되어 있다. 그런 환경에서는 반사파가 직접파와 coherent한 관계를 갖는다. 이런 현상으로 해서 DOA추정을 위해 추정한 correlation 행렬이 singular한 성질을 갖게 된다. 이렇게 singular한 행렬은 DOA추정에 큰 오류를 내게 된다. 또 움직이는 대상의 경우 추정 correlation 행렬의 성질이 시간에 따라 변하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 위 두 상황을 함께 해결하기 위해서 PASTd알고리즘을 변형하여 Forward/Backward Variable forgetting factor를 도입한 PASTd알고리즘을 제안한다.

This paper presents a signal processing method for calibrating an antenna array to solve the inaccuracy of Direction of Arrival(DOA). Using reference data quantifying amplitude and phase distortion levels for each angles, we compensate each radar array’s amplitude and phase distortion. The proposed method is applied to the Bartlett, Capon and MUSIC algorithms, Using 77 GHz Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave(FMCW) Long Range Radar(LRR) signal, we experimentally demonstrate the performance improvement after the proposed compensation.

본 논문에서는 레이더(Radar)나 소나(Sonar) 시스템 등에서 중요하게 여겨왔던 신호의 방위각 추정기법들은 신호원의 수를 정확히 알아야 한다는 문제점이 있었다. 이러한 문제점들을 최근에는 빠른 수렴속도를 가지는 칼만 필터를 사용하여 신호원의 정보 없이 잡음 부공간을 성공적으로 추정하는 방법을 제안하게 되었는데 이 방법은 중간대 이상의 신호대 잡음비(SNR)가 유지되는 경우 신호의 정보 얼이 DOA를 추정할 수 있는 것으로 평가되어왔다. 그러나 이러한 알고리즘은 임펄스성 잡음이 섞인다면 성능저하를 가져을 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 칼만 필터를 바탕으로 한 MUSIC 알고리즘에 시변메모리인자와 후버 영향 함수를 도입하여 임펄스 잡음에 강인한 DOA 추정알고리즘을 제안한다.

This paper introduces the development of the iterative multiple signal classification (MUSIC)-based direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation system using a rotator that can control the direction of antenna for the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) interference. The system calculates the spatial spectrum according to the noise eigenvector of all dimensions to measure the number of signals (NOS). Also, to detect the false peak, the system adjusts the array antenna's direction and checks the change's peak angles. The phase delay and gain correction values for system calibration are calculated in consideration of the chamber's structure and the characteristics of radio waves. The developed system estimated DOAs of interferences located about 1km away. The field test results show that the developed system can estimate the DOA without NOS information and detect the false peak even though the inter-element spacing is longer than the half-wavelength of the interference.

간섭신호가 원하는 신호에 coherent한 경우에는 원하는 신호와 간섭신호간의 cross correlation에 의해 공분산 행렬의 rank가 줄어들게 되어 coherent한 간섭신호의 도래각을 추정할 수 없게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 발표된 기존의 방법중 대칭 어레이(Symmetric array)방법은 계산량이 많아지고 공간 스무딩(Spatial Smoothing)방법은 array aperture size에서 손해를 보게 되어 분해능이 떨어지는 단점이 있다[1,2,3].
