Title
2D angle of arrival estimations and bandwidth recognition for broadband signals
Author
Abstract
In many angle of arrival (AoA) estimation algorithms for broadband signals a-prior knowledge about the impinging signals' bandwidth is required for the algorithms to function. In this paper, we present a new technique for estimating the AoA and the bandwidth of the received broadband signals without requiring any knowledge of the bandwidth of the received signals. The proposed technique consists of a uniform circular array (UCA) followed by a transversal filter. It employs variable bandwidth spatial vectors along with the signal to thermal noise ratio (STNR) estimator to estimate the AoA and the bandwidth of the received signals simultaneously. The simulation results illustrate the capabilities of the proposed technique in estimating not only the elevation and the azimuth of the impinging signals with different bandwidths, but also the bandwidths of these received signals.
