Automatic pair-matching method for estimating 2-D angle of arrival
Gan Lu, Wei Ping, Gu Jianfeng · 2008
In this paper, we propose an automatic pair-matching method for two-dimensional (2-D) angle estimation. Unlike some classical pair-matching methods requiring a complex process, this method utilizes the corresponding combinations of the elevation and azimuth angles emerging in the cross-correlation matrix of two uniform linear arrays (ULAs) to achieve automatic pairing. Computer simulations are used to show the performance of the proposed technique.
