Narrowband signal localization based on enhanced LAD method
Ke Xin Jia, Zi He · Journal of Communications and Networks · 2011
In this paper, an enhanced localization algorithm based on double thresholds (LAD) is proposed for localizing narrow band signals in the frequency domain. A simplified LAD method is first studied to reduce the computational complexity of the original LAD method without performance loss. The upper and lower thresholds of the simplified LAD method are directly calculated by running the forward consecutive mean excision algorithm only once. By combining the simplified LAD method and binary morphological operators, the enhanced LAD method is then proposed and its performance is simply discussed. The simulation results verify the correctness of discussion and show that the enhanced LAD method is superior to the LAD with adjacent cluster combining method, especially at low signal-to-noise ratio.
