High Resolution Vector-Sensor Array Processing Based on Biquaternions
Sébastian Miron, Nicolas Le Bihan, Jérôme I. Mars · 2006
This paper presents a version of MUSIC algorithm for linear vector-sensor arrays based on a complexified quaternionic (biquaternionic) modelization of the output three-components vector-signals. A way of computing the eigenvalue decomposition of a biquaternion valued matrix is introduced and the subspace decomposition of the biquaternionic spectral matrix of the observations is used to define the biquaternionic MUSIC estimator (BQ-MUSIC). Performances of the BQ-MUSIC are compared with classical long-vector technique
