Description
Summary:Joint direction of arrival (DOA) and time delay (TD) estimation of wideband signals such as WIFI and mobile communication signals has to face the challenges aroused by multipath effect in indoor environments. New methods that can deal with coherent wideband signals with high estimation accuracy are necessary. To achieve localization when signals are coherent, this paper proposes a new joint estimation method which fully utilizes the subcarriers of wideband signals. This method could greatly extend the array aperture and accomplish the joint estimation through UCA-ESPRIT and one-dimensional (1-D) search. Simulation experiments are conducted to show the validity and efficiency of this method.
