Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Conventional adaptive array antenna processing must observe signals on all of the array antenna elements. However, because the low-cost electronically steerable parasitic array radiator (ESPAR) antenna only has a single-port output, all of the signals on the antenna elements cannot be observed. A direct application of most of the algorithms for the conventional adaptive array antenna is impractical. In this paper, a new technique of estimation for direction-of-arrivals (DoAs) is proposed for the ESPAR antenna. This technique is based on the modified MUSIC (multiple signal classification) algorithm. An M-dimension vector y of the output of the antenna is obtained by making a circular shift of a given vector of the reactances M times. Then the M by M correlation matrix of the y vector is employed to estimate the MUSIC spectrum. Simulation results show that direction-of-arrivals can be estimated by the reactance-domain MUSIC algorithm for the ESPAR antenna.
