매시브 배열 안테나를 이용한 매시브 MIMO(: Multi Input Multi Output) 기술을 이용하기 위해서는 신호의 도래각(Angle of Arrival : AOA) 파악이 필수적으로 요구된다. 매시브 배열 안테나를 하면 기존 AOA 추정 알고리즘은 뛰어난 추정 성능을 갖지만, 안테나 요소 수에 비례하여 계산복잡도가 증가하는 단점이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 캐스케이드 AOA 추정 알고리즘이 제안되었으며 다수의 논문을 통해 단일 형상의 (비)매시브 배열 안테나에 대한 성능이 입증되었다. 하지만 단일 및 이중 림 어레이 안테나가 적용된 캐스케이드 AOA 추정 알고리즘의 계산복잡도 비교는 이루어지지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 단일 및 이중 림 어레이를 캐스케이드 AOA 추정 알고리즘에 적용된 경우 AOA 추정을 위한 계산복잡도를 비교 분석한다.

본 논문에서는 single array antenna 링크 상에서 각 스테이션 간의 안테나 빔의 스위트 스폿을 변형된 유전자 알고리즘(Modified Genetic Algorithm)을 이용하여 찾는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방식은 각 스테이션에서 전송하는 데이터에 안테나의 정보를 같이 전송하며 빔의 강도를 거리함수로 나타내고 그 거리함수의 곱을 적합도 함수로 이용하여 최대값이 되는 각도를 찾는 방식이다. MGA방식은 전처리 과정을 통하여 우수한 초기세대를 선택하는 방식으로 일반적인 GA방식에서 랜덤하게 초기세대를 갖는 것과는 차별화가 된다. 제안한 방식의 유용성을 확인하기 위하여 잡음이 없는 경우와 백색 가우시안 잡음을 첨가한 경우에 일반적인 GA 방식과 시뮬레이션을 통하여 성능을 확인하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 제안한 방식은 잡음이 없는 경우와 잡음을 첨가한 경우에 수렴율이 각각 99%, 82%로 일반적인 GA 방식보다 우수함을 확인하였다.

In this letter, we propose a novel design scheme for an optimal non-uniform planar array geometry in view of maximum side-lobe reduction. This is implemented by a thinned array using a genetic algorithm. We show that the proposed method can maintain a low side-lobe level without pattern distortion during beam steering.

An array based, outward monitoring, ultrasonic guided wave based SHM technique using a single transmitter and multiple receivers (STMR), with a small footprint is discussed here. The previous implementation of such SHM arrays used a phase-reconstruction algorithm (that is similar to the beam-steering algorithm) for the imaging of reflectors. These algorithms were found to have a limitation during the imaging of defects/reflectors that are present in the "near-field" of the array. Here, the "near-field" is defined to be approximately 3-4 times the diameter of the compact array. This limitation is caused by approximations in the beam-steering reconstruction algorithm. In this paper, a migration-based reconstruction algorithm, with dispersion correction in the frequency domain, is discussed. Simulation and experimental studies are used to demonstrate that this algorithm improves the reconstruction in the "near-field" without decreasing the ability to reconstruct defects in the "far-field" in both isotropic and anisotropic plates.

This paper proposes a novel control strategy of a PV tracking system considering the shadow influence. If distance of between PV arrays is not enough, shadow can be occurred to PV module. In PV system, if shadow is occurred to PV modules then PV modules operates reverses bias, and will eventually cause hot-spot and loss. To reduce loss by shadow influence, this paper proposes shadow compensation algorithm using distance between arrays and shadow length of array. The distance between arrays is calculated by using azimuth of solar, and length of array shadow is calculated using by altitude of solar. The shadow compensation algorithm proposed in this paper compares distance between arrays and length of array shadow. When the shadow length is longer than the distance between arrays, the algorithm adjusts altitude of array to avoid the shadow effects. The control algorithm proposed in this paper proves validity through compared with conventional algorithm and proposes experiment result.

Microphone array techniques are being used widely in wind tunnel measurements for identification of the distributed aerodynamic noise sources on the model being tested. Depending on the frequencies and sound levels, conventional beamforming algorithm has limitation in separating two adjacent sources. Several modifications to the classical beamforming have been developed to enhance way resolution and reduce sidelobe levels. In this Paper the robust adaptive beamforming and the CLEAN algorithm are used to compare to the result of conventional beamforming method. It is found that the CLEAN algorithm is capable of pin-pointing locations of multiple sources nearby, while these sources are unidentifiable with robust adaptive or conventional beamforming techniques.

The phased array antenna has the ability to perform adaptive sampling by directing the radar beam without inertia in any direction. The adaptive sampling capability of the phased array antenna allows each sampling time interval to be varied for each target, depending on the acceleration of each target at any time. In this paper we design a three-dimensional adaptive tracking algorithm for the phased array radar system with a given set of measurement parameters. The tracking algorithm avoids taking unnecessarily frequent samples, while keeping the angular prediction error within a fraction of antenna beamwidth so that the probability of detection will not be degraded during a track update illuminations. In our algorithm, the target model and the sampling rate are selected depending on the target range and the target maneuver status which is determined by a maneuver detector. A detailed simulation is conducted to test the validity of our tracking algorithm for encounter geometries under various conditions of maneuver.

In this paper, an accelerated generation algorithm to effectively generate an elemental image array in computational integral imaging system is proposed. In the proposed method, the depth information of 3D object is extracted from the images picked up by a stereo camera or depth camera. Then, the elemental image array can be generated by using the proposed accelerated generation algorithm with the depth information of 3D object. The resultant 3D image generated by the proposed accelerated generation algorithm was compared with that the conventional direct algorithm for verifying the efficiency of the proposed method. From the experimental results, the accuracy of elemental image generated by the proposed method could be confirmed.

This paper proposes an optimum array configuration to improve null steering time for mobile controlled reception pattern antenna (CRPA) systems. The proposed array consists of a single reference element at the center and nine auxiliary elements arranged in a circular array. The array radius and the vertical positions of the center element are optimized using a genetic algorithm in conjunction with a constrained least-mean-square algorithm. The results demonstrate that the proposed array is suitable for mobile CRPA systems without significant side nulls in satellite directions.

Ryu 등은 방위각 이노베이션을 효율적으로 구할 수 있는 계산식을 가진 다중표적 방위각 추적 알고리즘을 제안하였으며, 이 알고리즘은 데이터연관 문제가 발생하지 않는다는 장점을 가지고 있다. Ryu 알고리즘의 효율적인 방위각 이노베이션 계산식은 선배열센서를 사용하는 경우에 대하여 유도하였기 때문에, Ryu 알고리즘은 선배열센서에만 적용이 가능하다. 다중표적 방위각 추적 문제를 연구하는 많은 분야에서 다양한 형태의 배열센서를 사용하고 있다. 특히, 소나(Sonar)에서는 선배열센서 뿐만 아니라 원통형 배열센서도 많이 사용되고 있으며, 원통형 배열센서를 사용하는 대표적인 소나로 선체고정형 소나(Hull Mounted Sonar)가 있다. 본 논문에서 Ryu의 다중표적 방위각 추적 알고리즘을 원통형 배열센서에 적용할 수 있도록 수정하고, 다양한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해서 수정된 알고리즘의 추적성능을 확인한다.
