Direction of Arrival (DOA) Estimation is an important topic in signal processing. In this thesis, DOA estimation is considered when there are gain/phase mismatches, mutual coupling for the antennas and multipath signals are observed. In the first part, DOA estimation for uniform linear array (ULA) in the presence of mutual coupling is considered. Different methods in the literature are investigated and a promising solution for this case [1] is implemented. Auxiliary sensors are used and MUSIC algorithm is employed for both DOA and mutual coupling coefficient estimation. This method has extensions for two dimensional case and hence the same problem is considered for uniform rectangular (URA) array. The simulation results show that DOA estimation in 2D array can be effectively done in case of mutual coupling. In case of both gain/phase mismatch and mutual coupling, a self-calibration method is implemented where gain/phase mismatch and mutual coupling are estimated iteratively for DOA estimation. Different array geometries are considered for the performance evaluation. The benefit of exploiting prior-knowledge for DOA estimation is considered. In this case, there are some known sources as well as unknown ones. In addition, source signals are correlated. Constrained-MUSIC (C-MUSIC) [2] , Prior-knowledge based DOA estimation (PLEDGE)[3], Prior-Exploiting Orthogonally Weighted Direction Estimator(POWDER) [4], and Forward-backward spatial smoothing and MUSIC (FBSS-MUSIC) [5] algorithms are implemented and compared. The scenario is also extended to include mutual coupling and multipath.

Direction finding in the presence of array imperfections, model mismatches and multipath
Elbir, Ahmet M; Tuncer, Temel Engin; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2016)
In direction finding (DF) applications, there are several factors affecting the estimation accuracy of the direction-of-arrivals (DOA) of unknown source locations. The major distortions in the estimation process are due to the array imperfections, model mismatches and multipath. The array imperfections usually exist in practical applications due to the nonidealities in the antenna array such as mutual coupling (MC) and gain/phase uncertainties. The model mismatches usually occur when the model of the receiv...
Application of F-test method on model order selection and related problems
Yazar, Alper; Candan, Çağatay; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015)
Signal modeling is one of the important topics of signal processing area. The input signal should be modeled with a suitable mathematical model first. In statistics related disciplines, there are information theory based criteria for model order selection topic. In this thesis work, F-test based methods are proposed on model order selection and related problems. F-test is used in statistics related disciplines. However, it is not so widely used in signal processing related problems. Solution approaches for ...
Blind channel estimation in OFDM systems
Ayas, Mehmet Akif; Diker Yücel, Melek; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015)
In this thesis, we have studied blind channel estimation methods for single-input-multiple-output (SIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in time and frequency domain, in which the cross relation between the channel gains and a single snapshot of the received signal on each subcarrier is utilized. We have performed blind channel estimation for uncorrelated and correlated Rayleigh fading channel pairs using time and frequency methods in OFDM systems with one-transmitting, two-receivi...
Subspace based radar signal processing methods for array tapering and sidelobe blanking
Dinler, Doğancan; Candan, Çağatay; Koç, Seyit Sencer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2017)
The discretization of the signal impinging on several hundreds, even thousands, of receiving elements has become a common problem in modern phased array radar systems along with the developments in the digital signal processing. The spatial and temporal processing of such large dimensional data is too challenging for all steps of signal processing. This thesis is focused on the subspace methods that making the processing of the full dimensional data feasible at reduced dimensions. The first objective of the...
Properly Handling Complex Differentiation in Optimization and Approximation Problems
Candan, Çağatay (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-03-01)
Functions of complex variables arise frequently in the formulation of signal processing problems. The basic calculus rules on differentiation and integration for functions of complex variables resemble, but are not identical to, the rules of their real variable counterparts. On the contrary, the standard calculus rules on differentiation, integration, series expansion, and so on are the special cases of the complex analysis with the restriction of the complex variable to the real line. The goal of this lect...
