Using Stationary Data Model for Localization of Pulse Signal Sources
Alexandr M. Kuzminskiy · 1997
The solved problem is the estimation of parameters of a stream of pulse signals from spatially distributed sources by array processing. The proposed approach is based on the division of the observation time interval for processing of subintervals which contain isolated group of pulses adequate to the stationary data model. The density condition of the antenna array depending on the characteristics of pulses and their direction-of-arrival is formulated when the processing intervals can be found by the simple algorithm of detecting the simultaneous pauses of signals in all sensors. An example of using this condition for the choice of the antenna array geometry is presented. The area of applicability of the proposed approach is detailed for Poisson pulse stream model.
