Study on Improvement of MUSIC Estimation Method
Hao Yu Zhou · Applied Mechanics and Materials · 2014
MUSIC algorithm is a subspace decomposition method whose high resolution capability and other aspects of its performance have been investigated widely. Application of MUSIC algorithm to DOA (direction-of-arrival) estimation is of massive computation and requires that the number of signals must be known to partition the space into signal subspace and noise subspace. Moreover, the algorithm does not make use of information on the intensity of signals. This paper deeply investigates the theory of MUSIC algorithm and proposes a modification method which overcomes the disadvantages above. Finally, simulation tests have been undertaken to compare the original algorithm and its modification, which verifies the validity of the theory.
