Abstract

In this Paper, we Present a nonharmonic may geometry design method using Euclidan minimum distance function in difference Phase spaces for 2-D (azimuth/elevation) multiple baseline antenna may which has a way to reduce the number of sensor antennas while maintaining accurate DOA estimate. The major advantages of our approach is that even the shortest interelement spacing can be larger than half-wavelength and is not limit13d to linear and it can be applied successfully to any array configuration. In multiple signals impinging situation, the performance simulation results of superresolution algorithms shows the effectiveness of the proposed method. Also the 2-D asymmetric may using the Proposed method is designed and the Performance of the manufactured away through the experimental test is verified.

본 논문에서는 방위각과 고각을 동시에 탐지하는 2차원 멀티베이스라인 센서 배열 설계에서 DOA(Direction Of Arrival) 정확도를 유지하면서 센서 안테나수를 최소화하기 위해 위상차 공간에서 유클리드 최소 거리함수를 이용한 논하모닉 배열 구조 설계 메소드를 제안한다. 제안된 메소드는 기존 메소드와 달리 최소 이격 거리비가 반파장 이상인 경우에도 적용 가능할뿐더러 임의 배열구조에서도 적용이 가능한 장점을 갖는다. 다중신호 입사조건에서 초분해능 알고리즘을 적용한 모의 실험을 통해 설계 접근성의 효율성을 제시하였다. 또한 제안된 메소드를 적용하여 2차원 비대칭 배열 안테나를 설계하였고, 제작된 배열 안테나를 이용한 실험 결과를 통해 그 성능을 확인하였다.
