[1] A new approach is proposed for DOA estimation in nonuniform linear arrays (NLA) based on array interpolation. A Wiener formulation is presented to improve the condition number of the mapping matrix as well as the performance for noisy observations. Noniterative and iterative methods for DOA estimation are proposed. These methods use an initial DOA which is then significantly improved by the subsequent processing. Partially augmentable nonredundant arrays (PANA) and partly filled NLA (PFNLA) are considered and initial DOA is found in a different manner for each of these arrays. PANA are used for noncoherent sources whereas PFNLA are employed when the sources are coherent. Array interpolation is used to map the sample covariance matrix of the NLA to the covariance matrix of a uniform linear array (ULA) with the same aperture size and root-MUSIC is employed as a fast subspace algorithm for DOA estimation. Proposed methods overcome some of the limitations of the conventional array interpolation. DOA estimation problem is considered for correlated and coherent sources. Proposed approaches are compared with two previous methods as well as the spectral MUSIC and root-MUSIC algorithms applied on the NLA and ULA, respectively. It is shown that DOA performance is significantly improved for a wide variety of DOA scenarios.

Direction of arrival estimation by array interpolation in randomly distributed sensor arrays
Akyıldız, Işın; Tuncer, Temel Engin; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006)
In this thesis, DOA estimation using array interpolation in randomly distributed sensor arrays is considered. Array interpolation is a technique in which a virtual array is obtained from the real array and the outputs of the virtual array, computed from the real array using a linear transformation, is used for direction of arrival estimation. The idea of array interpolation techniques is to make simplified and computationally less demanding high resolution direction finding methods applicable to the general...
Optimization of nonuniform array geometry for DOA estimation with the constraint on gross error probability
Birinci, Toygar; Tanık, Yalçın (2007-10-01)
In this work, a novel method is proposed to optimize the array geometry for DOA estimation. The method is based on minimization of fine error variances with the constraint that the gross error probability is below a certain threshold. For this purpose, a metric function that reflects the gross and fine error characteristics of the array is proposed. Theoretical analyses show that the minimization of this metric function leads to small DOA estimation error variance and small gross error probability. Analyses...
Wideband doa estimation for nonuniform linear arrays with wiener array interpolation
Yasar, T. Kaya; Tuncer, Temel Engin (2008-07-23)
Coherent wideband DOA estimation for non-uniform linear arrays (NLA) is considered. Array interpolation is used for two mappings. In the first mapping, NLA is mapped to a uniform linear array with the same array aperture. In the second mapping covariance matrices for each frequency bin are mapped to a single one at the center frequency for coherent DOA estimation. A Wiener formulation is used for array interpolation where both signal and noise powers are estimated with maximum likelihood method. Different a...
Partly-filled nonuniform linear arrays for DOA estimation in multipath signals
Tuncer, Temel Engin; Friedlander, Benjamin (2007-04-20)
Partly-filled nonuniform linear arrays (PFNLA) are presented and DOA estimation problem for multipath signals is investigated. A new approach is proposed for DOA estimation in nonuniform linear arrays (NLA) based on array interpolation. A Wiener formulation is used to improve the condition number of the mapping matrix as well as the performance for noisy observations. An initial DOA estimate is obtained by using the uniform part of the PFNLA. This initial estimate is used in array interpolation and a new co...
Fine resolution frequency estimation from three DFT samples: Case of windowed data
Candan, Çağatay (2015-09-01)
An efficient and low complexity frequency estimation method based on the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) samples is described. The suggested method can operate with an arbitrary window function in the absence or presence of zero-padding. The frequency estimation performance of the suggested method is shown to follow the Cramer-Rao bound closely without any error floor due to estimator bias, even at exceptionally high signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) values.
