Asymptotic robustness of sensor array processing methods

Abstract: Methods for estimating the parameters of narrowband signals arriving at an array of sensors are analyzed. Asymptotic results for several estimators have recently appeared in the literature. With few exceptions, the previous analysis requires the incident signal waveforms to be Gaussian random variables. These results are shown to be valid under much more general conditions, i.e. the actual distribution of the signal waveforms does not affect the asymptotic properties of the parameter. >

Analysis of algorithms for sensor arrays with invariance structure

Abstract: The problem of estimating signal parameters from sensor array data is addressed. If the array is composed of two identical subarrays, (i.e. one invariance) the ESPRIT algorithm is known to yield parameter estimates in a very cost efficient manner. Recently, the total least squares (TLS) version of ESPRIT has been formulated in a subspace fitting framework. In this formulation, the ESPRIT concept is easily generalized to arrays exhibiting more than one invariance. The asymptotic properties for this class of algorithms are derived. The estimates are shown to be statistically efficient under certain assumptions. The case of a uniform linear array is studied in more detail, and a generalization of the ESPRIT algorithm is proposed by introducing row weighting of the subspace estimate. >
