In order to estimate the coherent source, a modified multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm is introduced. And a novel arrangement method for the non-uniform linear array by particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed. This method needs merely a signal source whose direction-of-arrival (DOA) has been exactly known. The proposed method has a simple processing and a strong stabilization. It could be applied to optimized arbitrary array configuration. The simulation verifies that the performance of DOA estimation is improved effectively, which has proved the validity of the proposed method.

An arrangement method for non-uniform linear array using genetic algorithm (GA) is proposed. It is a general purpose method and needs only the angle range of the signal directions and the desired aperture of the array. It has few parameters, simple processing steps and a strong stabilization. It can be applied to optimize arbitrary array configuration. Modified multiple signal classification (MMUSIC) algorithm is discussed for estimating coherent sources using the non-uniform linear array. Simulation results show that the performance of the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation has been improved effectively on contrast with other array structures, the validity of the proposed method is proved.

This paper considers the problem of estimating the direction of arrival (DOA) for the both incoherent and coherent signals from narrowband sources, located in the far field in the case of uniform linear array sensors. Three different methods are analyzed. Specifically, these methods are Music, Root-Music and ESPRIT. The pros and cons of these methods are identified and compared in light of different viewpoints. The performance of the three methods is evaluated, analytically, when possible, and by Matlab simulation. This paper can be a roadmap for beginners in understanding the basic concepts of DOA estimation issues, properties and performance.

AbstractA novel approach to linear array antennas with adaptive inter-element spacing is presented for the first time. The main idea is based upon electronically displacing the phase center location of the antenna elements, which determine their relative coordinates in the array configuration. This is realized by employing dual-mode microstrip patch antennas as a constitutive element, whose phase center location can be displaced from its physical center by simultaneously exciting two modes. The direction and the amount of displacement is controlled by the amplitude and phase of the modes at the element level. This in turn facilitates reconfiguring the inter-element spacing at the array level. For instance, a uniformly-spaced array could be electronically transformed into a non-uniform one without any mechanical means. The proposed idea is demonstrated in two- and three-element linear antenna arrays. The technique has the potential to control the radiation characteristics such as sidelobe levels, position of the nulls, and the beamwidths in small arrays, which are useful for adaptively controlling the array performance in emerging wireless communication systems and radars.

In order to improve the angle measurement performance of a coprime linear array, this paper proposes a novel direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation algorithm for a coprime linear array based on the multiple invariance estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (MI-ESPRIT) and a lookup table method. The proposed algorithm does not require a spatial spectrum search and uses a lookup table to solve ambiguity, which reduces the computational complexity. To fully use the subarray elements, the DOA estimation precision is higher compared with existing algorithms. Moreover, the algorithm avoids the matching error when multiple signals exist by using the relationship between the signal subspace of two subarrays. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
