A single snapshot data can only provide limited amount of information so that the rank of covariance matrix is not full, which is not adopted to complete the parameter estimation directly using the traditional super-resolution method. Aiming at solving the problem, a joint time delay and angle estimation using matrix pencil method based on information reconstruction vector for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal is proposed. Firstly, according to the channel frequency response vector of each array element, the algorithm reconstructs the vector data with delay and angle parameter information from both frequency and space dimensions. Then the enhanced data matrix for the extended array element is constructed, and the parameter vector of time delay and angle is estimated by the two-dimensional matrix pencil (2D MP) algorithm. Finally, the joint estimation of two-dimensional parameters is accomplished by the parameter pairing. The algorithm does not need a pseudo-spectral peak search, and the location of the target can be determined only by a single receiver, which can reduce the overhead of the positioning system. The theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the estimation accuracy of the proposed method in a single snapshot and low signal-to-noise ratio environment is much higher than that of Root Multiple Signal Classification algorithm (Root-MUSIC), and this method also achieves the higher estimation performance and efficiency with lower complexity cost compared to the one-dimensional matrix pencil algorithm.

In this paper, we present a method to estimate an accurate real-time sound source direction based on time delay of arrival by using generalized cross correlation with four cross-type microphones. In general, existing systems have two disadvantages such as system embedding limitation due to the necessity of data acquisition for signal processing from microphone input, and real-time processing difficulty because of the increased number of channels for sound direction estimation using DSP processors. To cope with these disadvantages, the system considered in this paper proposes hardware design for enhanced real-time processing using microphone array signal processing. An accurate direction estimation and its design time reduction is achieved by means of an efficient hardware design using spatial segmentation methods and verification techniques. Finally we develop a system which can be used for embedded systems using a sound codec and an FPGA chip. According to experimental results, the system gives much faster real-time processing time compared with either PC-based systems or the case with DSP processors.

This study introduces an enhanced sound source localization technique, bolstered by a data-driven deep learning approach, to improve the precision and accuracy of direction of arrival estimation. Focused on refining Time Difference Of Arrival (TDOA) based sound source localization, the research hinges on accurately estimating TDOA from cross-correlation functions. Accurately estimating the TDOA still remains a limitation in this research field because the measured value from actual microphones are mixed with a lot of noise. Additionally, the digitization process of acoustic signals introduces quantization errors, associated with the sampling frequency of the measurement system, that limit the precision of TDOA estimation. A deep learning-based approach is designed to overcome these limitations in TDOA accuracy and precision. To validate the method, we conduct comprehensive evaluations using both two and three-microphone array configurations. Moreover, the feasibility and real-world applicability of the suggested method are further substantiated through experiments conducted in an anechoic chamber.

In this paper an ESPRIT-based super-resolution time delay estimation algorithm is developed for real-time locating system (RTLS) and its performance is analyzed in various multipath environments. The performance of the existing correlation method for time delay estimation seriously degrades in multipath environments where the relative time delays of multipath signals are less than a PN chip. To solve the problem we shall develop a frequency domain super-resolution time delay estimation algorithm using the ESPRIT, the most representative super-resolution direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation algorithm, and analyze its performance in various multipath environments.

Now days, It is based on GIS and GPS, it can search for the shortest path and estimation of arrival time by using the internet and cell phone to driver. But, even though good car navigation system does not create which is the shortest path when there average vehicle speed is 10 -20 Km. Therefore In order to reduce vehicle waiting time and average vehicle speed, we suggest optimal green time algorithm using fuzzy adaptive control, where there are different traffic intersection length and lane. In this paper, it will be able to forecast the optimal traffic information, estimation of destination arrival time, under construction road, and dangerous road using internet.

A wireless positioning system using ultra-wideband (UWB) for indoor wireless positioning uses ranging data in order to accurately estimate location. Commonly, ranging uses time of arrival (TOA), time difference of arrival (TDOA) based on arrival time. The most fundamental issue in the ranging for wireless positioning is to obtain clock synchronization among the sensor nodes and to correct an error caused by the relative clock offset from each node. In this paper, we propose ranging and positioning technique using common clock in order to solve both clock synchronization and clock offset problems. To verify the performance of proposed, we simulated ranging and positioning in channel model introduced by IEEE 802.15.4a Task Group and then results show that location estimation is unaffected by clock offset.

In this paper, a mathmatical model for the purpose of QRS detection is considered in the case of the occurence of nonoverlappjng pulse-shaped waveforms corrupted with white noise. The number of waveform, the arrival times, amplitudes, and widths of QRS complexes are regarded as random variables. The joint MAP estimation of all the unknown Quantities consists of linear filtering followed by an optimization procedure. Because the optimization procedure is time-consuming, this procedure is modified so that a threshold test is obtained.

This paper is presents an intelligent control system that visualizes the direction of arrival for hearing impaired using personal mobility, and aims to recognize and prevent dangerous situations caused by sound such as alarm sounds and crack sounds on roads. The position estimation method of sound source uses a machine learning classification model characterized by generalized correlated phase transformation based on time difference of arrival. In the experimental environment reproducing the road situations, four classification models learned after extracting learning data according to wind speeds 0km/h, 5.8km/h, 14.2km/h, and 26.4km/h were compared with grid search cross validation, and the Muti-Layer Perceptron(MLP) model with the best performance was applied as the optimal algorithm. When wind occurred, the proposed algorithm showed an average performance improvement of 7.6-11.5% compared to the previous studies.

In this paper, the sound source localization system in real time which uses the time delay of arrival signal is proposed. This system uses minimum microphones and surveillance camera for estimation of the sound source localization and sound direction. To apply this system to the military field, four models(model1~model4) are derived. Model 1 can be used to evaluate the sound source localization at the long distance. Model2 and model3 can be applied to estimate the sound direction. Model4 is useful for the special purpose and potable device. It is possible for this system to be used for the military guard and surveillance. As a result of experiments, It is shown that this system can estimate the sound source localization and the sound direction using minimum microphones.

This paper focuses on analyzing the effects of primary user (PU) signal arrival on the local spectrum sensing performance. The probability for signal arrival at a sample in the sensing time is uniformly distributed in the sensing time. We first analyze the main factor that causes the degradation in the detection results in the conventional energy detection (CED) under the uniformly random arrival of the PU-signal. Thus we propose an approach in order to enhance the detection performance, in which an estimator which detects the arrival of the PU signal cooperates with a composite energy detection. The mathematical analysis and numerical simulation has validated the outperformance of the proposed approach compared to the CED.
