Abstract

Motivation

  • The effectiveness of the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation greatly determines the performance of smart antennas.
     

  • The accuracy in the estimation of DOA is very crucial in array signal processing.

Abstract

  • The MUSIC algorithm emphasized on a peak search method to estimate the arrival angle.

    • Array element spacing

    • Number of array elements

    • Number of snapshots

    • The signal incidence angle difference
       

  • The MUSIC algorithm has less efficiency for coherent signals.

DOA Estimation

  • The physical size of the operating antenna is inversely proportional to the antenna main lobe beam width.

    • Increasing the size of a single antenna is not practically feasible.

    • Antenna array provides better performances and signal reception.
       

  • Strengthen the useful signals by eliminating the noise signals and interference.

    • E.g., ESPRIT, MUSIC, WSF, MVDR, ML techniques and others.

DOA Estimation (cont.)

  • ESPRIT (Estimation of Signal Parameter via Rotational Invariance Techniques) and MUSIC (Multiple Signal Classification) are the two widely used spectral estimation techniques.

    • Decomposition of Eigen values

    • ESPRIT is applied to only array structures with some peculiar geometry.

    • MUSIC is used for both uniform and non-uniform linear arrays.

The MUSIC Algorithm

Schmidt with his colleagues proposed the Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm in 1979.

Introduction

  • The Eigen value decomposition of the received signal covariance matrix.
     

  • As this algorithm takes uncorrelated noise in to account, the generated covariance matrix is diagonal in nature.
     

  • The signal and the noise subspaces are orthogonal to each other.
     

  • This algorithm exploits the orthogonality to isolate the signal and noise subspaces.

The MUSIC Algorithm

  • The covariance matrix       for the received data J is the expectance of the matrix with its Hermitian equivalent.





     

    •       is the noise correlation matrix,                .
    •     is an unit matrix for the antenna array elements            .

The MUSIC Algorithm (cont.)

  • When this correlation matrix is decomposed it results in      number of Eigen values out of which the larger      Eigen values corresponds to the signal sources and the remaining smaller                     Eigen values are related to the noise subspace.

The MUSIC Algorithm (cont.)

  • As the MUSIC algorithm exploits the orthogonality between the signal and noise subspaces, the following holds true:


     

  • The DOA angle can be represented in terms of incident signal sources and the noise subspaces.

Improved MUSIC Algorithm

Improved MUSIC Algorithm

  • MUSIC algorithm achieves high resolution in DOA estimation only when the signals are non-coherent.

Improved MUSIC Algorithm (cont.)

  • Introduce an identity transition matrix     so that the new received signal matrix 

    •      is the complex conjugate of the original received signal matrix.

  • The matrix       and       can be summed up to obtain a reconstructed matrix     because they will have the same noise subspaces.
