A Novel DOA Estimation Method for Wideband Signals

Article Preview

Abstract:

For direction of arrival (DOA) estimation of wideband signals, the traditional algorithms’ estimating accuracy and complexity were mainly affected by pre-estimation of DOA. By forming an angle set which elements were arithmetic progressions in the range of possible arriving angles, the algorithm used the new angle vector to replace the preliminary estimation of arriving angles. It can avoid the impact of pre-estimation bias on performance of DOA estimation and greatly reduce the amount of computation and the consumed time for DOA estimation to favor the real-time application of wideband DOA estimation. The simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm was able to provide significant performance improvement over the conventional algorithm.
