Abstract
|
|
|
|
| In this paper, we present an experimental analysis of the Angle of Arrival (AoA) estimation accuracy in an indoor environment. We utilized an AoA estimation system that is suitable for Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies. The AoA estimation system constituted 8 antenna elements that are distributed as Uniform Linear Array (ULA) antenna. Both Line-of-Sight (LoS) and Non-Line-of-Sight (NLoS) conditions were considered. The conventional beamformer, MUISC, Root MUSIC, ESPRIT and SAGE algorithms were employed to provide the AoA estimates. The experimental results reveal that the AoA estimation algorithms provide a very poor AoA estimation accuracy for signals that were originated within the endfire region of the ULA. Furthermore, the signals that were originated within the ULA broadside region have a maximum estimation error equals 10 and 15 degrees for the LoS and NLoS conditions, respectively. |
