Iterative Sparse Asymptotic Minimum Variance Based Approaches For
1 Iterative Sparse Asymptotic Minimum Variance Based Approaches for Array Processing Habti Abeida∗, Qilin Zhangy, Jian Liz and Nadjim Merabtinex ∗Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Taif, Al-Haweiah, Saudi Arabia yDepartment of Computer Science, Stevens Institue of Technology, Hoboken, NJ, USA zDepartment of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, USA xDepartment of Electrical Engineering, University of Taif, Al-Haweiah, Saudi Arabia Abstract This paper presents a series of user parameter-free iterative Sparse Asymptotic Minimum Variance (SAMV) approaches for array processing applications based on the asymptotically minimum variance (AMV) criterion. With the assumption of abundant snapshots in the direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation problem, the signal powers and noise variance are jointly estimated by the proposed iterative AMV approach, which is later proved to coincide with the Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimator. We then propose a series of power-based iterative SAMV approaches, which are robust against insufficient snapshots, coherent sources and arbitrary array geometries. Moreover, to over- come the direction grid limitation on the estimation accuracy, the SAMV-Stochastic ML (SAMV-SML) approaches are derived by explicitly minimizing a closed form stochastic ML cost function with respect to one scalar parameter, eliminating the need of any additional grid refinement techniques. To assist the performance evaluation, approximate solutions to the SAMV approaches are also provided at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and low SNR, respectively. Finally, numerical examples are generated to compare the performance of the proposed approaches with existing approaches.

DOA Estimation of Noncircular Signal Based on Sparse Representation
Wireless Pers Commun (2015) 82:2363–2375 DOI 10.1007/s11277-015-2352-z DOA Estimation of Noncircular Signal Based on Sparse Representation Xuemin Yang · Guangjun Li · Zhi Zheng Published online: 3 February 2015 © Springer Science+Business Media New York 2015 Abstract In this paper, we propose a novel method employing subspace fitting principle for DOA estimation of noncircular signal based on the sparse representation technology. The proposed method combines the signal information contained in both the covariance and elliptic covariance matrix of the received data matrix. We use the eigenvalue decomposition of the extended covariance to obtain the signal eigenvectors, and represent the steering vector on overcomplete basis subject to sparse constraint in subspace fitting method. After casting multiple dimensional optimization problem of the classical subspace fitting method as a sparse reconstruction problem, we use L1-norm penalty for sparsity, and optimization by the second order cone programming framework to obtain the DOA estimates. The proposed method can be used in arbitrary array configuration. Compared with the existing algorithms, the simulation results show that the proposed method has better performance in low SNR. Compared with L1-SVD, the proposed method also own better resolution probability.

Beamforming Management and Beam Training in 5G System
Samir Ahmed BEAMFORMING MANAGEMENT AND BEAM TRAINING IN 5G SYSTEM Master of Science Thesis Faculty of Information Technology and Communication Science November 2019 i ABSTRACT Samir Ahmed: Beamforming management and beam training in 5G system Master of Science Thesis Tampere University Master of Science in Electrical Engineering November 2019 Massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna system with beamforming technique is an integral part of upcoming 5G new radio (NR) system. For the upcoming deployment of 5G NR system in both stand-alone (SA) and non-stand-alone (NSA) structure, beamforming plays an important role to achieve its key features and meet the estimated requirement. To be employed with massive MIMO antenna structure, beamforming will allow 5G system to serve several users at a time with better throughput and spectral usage. Beamforming will also minimize the path loss due to high susceptibility of millimetre wave and provide beamforming gain. For a wide range of benefit scheme, beamforming is currently a hot topic regarding the deployment of 5G. With the advantage of both analog and digital beamforming, hybrid beamforming structure can provide better system benchmark performance in terms of cost and flexibility. Switched beam training and adaptive beam training approaches and algorithms are developed in order to reduce training time, signalling overhead and misdetection probability. Some of the approaches and algorithm are ad- dressed in this thesis. Beamforming management ensures the initiation and sustainability of the established link between transmitter and receiver through different processes. Beam tracking helps to keep track of the receiver devices during mobility. As beamforming is related to antenna configuration, near-field spherical wave front incident problem was ignored, and all the references and examples presented in this topic was obtained with a far-field propagation perspective. -

sensors Letter A Switched-Element System Based Direction of Arrival (DOA) Estimation Method for Un-Cooperative Wideband Orthogonal Frequency Division Multi Linear Frequency Modulation (OFDM-LFM) Radar Signals Yifei Liu 1,*, Yuan Zhao 1, Jun Zhu 1, Jun Wang 2 and Bin Tang 1 1 School of Information and Communication Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu 611731, China; [email protected] (Y.Z.); [email protected] (J.Z.); [email protected] (B.T.) 2 School of Electronic Science and Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu 611731, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: fl[email protected]; Tel.: +86-159-2874-2900 Received: 4 December 2018; Accepted: 28 December 2018; Published: 2 January 2019 Abstract: This paper proposes a switched-element direction finding (SEDF) system based Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation method for un-cooperative wideband Orthogonal Frequency Division Multi Linear Frequency Modulation (OFDM-LFM) radar signals. This method is designed to improve the problem that most DOA algorithms occupy numbers of channel and computational resources to handle the direction finding for wideband signals. Then, an iterative spatial parameter estimator is designed through deriving the analytical steering vector of the intercepted OFDM-LFM signal by the SEDF system, which can remarkably mitigate the dispersion effect that is caused by high chirp rate. Finally, the algorithm flow and numerical simulations are given to corroborate the feasibility and validity of our proposed DOA method. Keywords: wideband OFDM-LFM signal; switched-element system; fractional autocorrelation; DOA estimation 1. Introduction As a novel synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system, the multiple-input multiple-output SAR (MIMO-SAR) utilizes multiple antennas to emit mutually orthogonal waveforms, and employs multiple receiving channels to process the echo signals simultaneously [1–3]. -

Single-snapshot direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation plays an important role in dynamic target detection and tracking applications. Because a single-snapshot signal provides few information for statistics calculation, recently compressed sensing (CS) theory is applied to solve single-snapshot DOA estimation, instead of the traditional DOA methods based on statistics. However, when the unknown sources are closely located, the spatial signals are highly correlated, and its overcomplete dictionary is made up of dense grids, which leads to a serious decrease in the estimation accuracy of the CS-based algorithm. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposed a two-step compressed sensing-based algorithm for the single-snapshot DOA estimation of closely spaced signals. 'e overcomplete dictionaries with coarse and refined grids are used in the two steps, respectively. 'e measurement matrix is constructed by using a very sparse projection scheme based on chaotic sequences because chaotic sequences have determinism and pseudo-randomness property. -

I.INTRODUCTION An antenna is defined by Webster‘s Dictionary as ―a usually metallic device (as a rod or wire) for radiating or receiving radio waves.‖ The IEEE Standard Definitions of Terms for Antennas (IEEE Std 145–1983) defines the antenna or aerial as ―a means for radiating or receiving radio waves.‖ In other words the antenna is the transitional structure between free-space and a guiding device. The guiding device or transmission line may take the form of a coaxial line or a hollow pipe (waveguide), and it is used to transport electromagnetic energy from the transmitting source to the antenna or from the antenna to the receiver. In the former case, we have a transmitting antenna and in the latter a receiving antenna as shown in figure 1.1. Fig.1.1 .Antenna Fundamentals An antenna is basically a transducer. It converts radio frequency (RF) signal into an electromagnetic (EM) wave of the same frequency. It forms a part of transmitter as well as the receiver circuits. Its equivalent circuit is characterized by the presence of resistance, inductance, and capacitance.
