Abstract:

The MUltiple SIgnal Classification MUSIC algorithm is a kind of DOA (Direction Of Arrival) estimation technique based on eigenvalue decomposition, which is also called subspace-based method [5]. In addition of its super resolution capability, MUSIC is very suitable for integration on logic circuit devices such as FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Array).this paper proposes an implementation of unitary MUSIC algorithm using Xilinx System Generator (XSG). The design proposed uses CORDIC (COordinate Rotation DIgital Computer) -based Triangular Systolic Array for QR- decomposition to deal with EVD (eigenvalue decomposition). The MUSIC spectrum is computed with spatial DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform) using FFT block offered by Simulink- Xilinx blockset library. The performance of eight elements antenna array system was obtained and discussed.
