As the number of antennas in the modern radio-telescopes increases, the computational complexity of the calibration algorithms becomes more and more important. In this paper we use the Khatri-Rao structure of the covariance data model used for such calibrations and combine it with Krylov subspace based methods to achieve accurate calibration results with low complexity, very small memory usage and fast convergence properties. We also demonstrate the proposed method on experimental data measured by the LOFAR radio-telescope.

In this paper, random switch antenna array (RSAA) is proposed to apply to the switch antenna array (SAA) frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar system. Firstly, the signal model and signalprocessing method of RSAA is analyzed and it shows that RSAA can successfully solve azimuth-velocity coupling problem. then we suppose a method by using RSAA to reduce the switching frequency and sampling rate based on sparse signal representation with multiple measurement vectors (MMV). It is shown in simulations that the proposed algorithms yield better performance in terms of azimuth-velocity decoupling and can obtain high image accuracy with less observation data.

An adaptive algorithm for azimuth-angle estimation of moving sources in the presence of array nonidealities is proposed. the method, termed unitary element-space Capon (UESCapon) beamformer, is robust in the face of small number of snapshots and fully takes into account effects such as mutual coupling, mounting platform reflections, and sensor's misplacement errors. Unlike most of the robust beamformers available in the literature, the proposed method is based on QR-decomposition and real-valued polynomial root tracking. Furthermore, it is applicable to sensorarrays of arbitrary configuration. Numerical results using a real-world antenna array are included, illustrating the excellent performance of the proposed method, both in terms of SINR and fast adaptivity to moving sources.

Target parameter estimation from noisy and quantized received signals is of paramount importance in radar applications. In this paper, we propose a novel method to estimate the unknown target parameters via one-bit sampling, where the samples are produced by comparing the received signal with a time-varying threshold. the proposed approach utilizes a weighted least-squares criterion to establish a connection to previous results in radar target estimation and signalprocessing. Several numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

the problem of model order selection from signed measurements obtained via L-blt sampling is considered. the extension of the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) to the case of 1-blt sampling, referred to as 1bBIC, is proposed to determine the signal model order. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the performance of 1bBIC when the One-Bit RELAX algorithm is used to estimate the parameters of sinusoidal signals.

Many real world applications of target tracking and state estimation are non-linear filtering problems and can therefore not be solved by closed-form analytical solutions. In the recent past, tensor based approaches have become increasingly popular due to very effective decomposition algorithms, which allow the representation of discretized, high-dimensional data in compressed form. In this paper, a solution of the prediction step for a Bayesian filter is proposed, where the probability density function (pdf) is approximated by a tensor in Hierarchical Tucker Decomposition. It is shown, that the computation of the predicted pdf is about five times faster than the previously proposed Canonical Polyadic Decomposition format.

A coprime array consists of two uniform linear subarrays that construct an effective difference co-array with certain desirable characteristics. In this paper, we propose a generalized coprime array concept through the compression of the interelement spacing of one constituting subarray. As such, the existing variations of coprime array and nested array structures are represented as special cases. the achievable unique lags as well as consecutive lags in the resulting virtual array are analytically expressed, and the direction-of-arrival estimation performance is examined using boththe MUSIC algorithm and sparse signal reconstruction techniques.

this paper proposes an enhancement and evaluates the performance of a recently proposed method for joint extraction of pitch and direction of arrival for speaker localization. We propose a new weighting function in order to suppress the cross-terms of the aforementioned method. the performance of the method is evaluated by measuring the correct estimate of position at a frame level. this evaluation analyzes the limits of the method at different background noise levels by using real world recordings. the results show that the proposed algorithm gives more consistent location estimates leading to a reduction in angular deviation by 4.23°at -3 dB SNR.

this paper addresses the localization of an unknown number of acoustic sources in an enclosure. We extend a well established algorithm for localization of acoustic sources, which is based on the Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm for clustering of phase differences by a Gaussian mixture model. Supporting a more appropriate probabilistic model for spherical data such as direction of arrival or phase differences, the von Mises distribution is used to derive a localization algorithm for multiple simultaneously active sources. Experiments with simulated room impulse responses confirm the superiority of the proposed algorithm to the existing method in terms of localization performance.

A permutation problem arises in the case of locating multiple speech sources using several sensorarrays in the far field. the intersection of different direction of arrival (DOA) estimates between sensorarrays leads to a set of real source locations as well as a set of false intersections. this paper presents a novel method for pairing DOA estimates from different sensorarrays, resulting in the corresponding real intersection points. the algorithm presented is numerically efficient and suitable for real time implementations. Real room recordings are used to evaluate the method.
