Resolving ambiguities in estimating spatial frequencies in sparse linear array
D.W. Tufts, Hongya Ge, R. Kumaresan · 2002
The authors extend previous work on ambiguity resolution in sparse linear prediction to array signal processing. A non-uniformly spaced linear array with minimum number of sensors is introduced in order to obtain high resolution spatial frequency estimates at reduced computation and at minimum hardware cost. By properly choosing inter-element spacing, combining and processing subarray outputs in parallel, a computationally simple algorithm is proposed for unambiguously estimating spatial frequencies of the source signals.>
