In this paper, we propose a model for a peer-to-peer database system architecture where each server is aware of the power system state vector, and that can provide a scalable architecture for the Smart Grid. The key new component is a decentralized gossip-based state estimation (G-SE) algorithm included as a stored database procedure, which constantly updates via network diffusion, the global state information vector in each server of the distributed database system (DDBS). In addition to provide global situation awareness, state aware DDBS can attain communication and storage efficiency first, by using the temporal and spatial correlation of the state to compress it and, second, by storing the state as side information to store measurement residuals. Thanks to the G-SE primitive DDBS are more resilient to network attaks, can reduce network usage and streamline query processing for Smart Grid applications.

Classical localization systems based on TDOA/FDOA use a two-stage estimation approach. In the first stage, pairs of sensors share data to estimate TDOA/FDOA. Then, the extracted TDOA/FDOA measurements are used to estimate the emitter location. In some recently published methods, an optimal single-stage approach named Direct Position Determination (DPD) has been proposed to improve the position estimation accuracy. However, unlike the classical two-stage method where the TDOA/FDOA estimation can be distributed across all sensors, DPD processes all the received signals together at a single sensor node. However, when sensors have limited computational capabilities it is desirable to distribute the computation across all sensors. Furthermore, concentrating all the processing into a single node makes the location system less robust to the loss of sensors. In this paper, we develop a distributed localization method with the goal of reducing the computational load on each sensor and increasing the reliability of the system.

This paper describes the implementation in silicon of a retina-like sensor characterized by a space-variant resolution similar to that of the human retina. Besides the actual implementation using CMOS technology, the design peculiarities of retina-like sensors are compared with the use of software or hardware electronic remappers. The paper also describes the realization of a retina-like digital camera and its applications for realtime control and image transmission.

In this paper, we propose high-resolution target direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation using frequency-switching sparse arrays which implement multi-frequency sparse arrays in a low-complexity manner. Unlike multi-frequency sparse arrays which require processing of wideband signals comprising multiple frequency components, the proposed frequency-switching sparse arrays only need to process a single-frequency component at any time instant, thereby eliminating such hurdles and significantly reducing the system complexity. A frequency-switching sparse array achieves the same number of degrees-of-freedom as a multi-frequency counterpart with comparable DOA estimation performance. Numerical results on the DOA estimation performance and Cramer-Rao bounds are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed frequency-switching sparse arrays.

Compensation for nonlinear distortion caused by power amplifiers being driven into compression is a field that has been extensively explored by a number of authors. More complex models describing the coupled nonlinear distortion that can occur in an active antenna array also exist. To identify these models most authors assume that the output of each power amplifier can be measured directly. For a system with many antennas over-theair identification might be favorable. The problem of identifying a system describing the joint effects of coupled nonlinear distortion over-the-air has been solved by other authors assuming model or setup simplifications. To tackle the problem with a more accurate model, an algorithm for identifying parameters of a Volterra series model describing coupled non-linear distortion in a digital radar is explored and illustrated with simulated data.

In this paper, we propose an optimized tensor model for direction of departure (DOD) and direction of arrival (DOA) estimation with coprime multiple input multiple output (MIMO) radar. We first develop the Toeplitz matrix using the consecutive lags in the sum-difference coarray after vectorizing the array covariance matrix. We then construct a generalized three-way tensor model and derive the optimized tensor by maximizing the number of targets. Then, the existing COMFAC technique is exploited for angle estimation. We show that the proposed method can identify more targets and achieve better performance by enforcing the three-way structure as compared to the subspace-based algorithms. Numerical simulations are provided to validate the theoretical analysis.

Spatial frequency estimation from a superposition of impinging waveforms in the presence of noise is important in many applications. While subspace-based methods offer high-resolution parameter estimation at a low computational cost, they heavily rely on precise array calibration with a synchronized clock, posing challenges for large distributed antenna arrays. In this study, we focus on direction-of-arrival (DoA) estimation within sparse partly calibrated rectangular arrays. These arrays consist of multiple perfectly calibrated subarrays with unknown phase-offsets among them. We present a gridless sparse formulation for DoA estimation leveraging the multiple shift-invariance properties in the partly calibrated array. Additionally, an efficient blind calibration technique is proposed based on semidefinite relaxation to estimate the intersubarray phase-offsets accurately.

We present a deep reinforcement learning approach to design an automotive radar system with integrated sensing and communication. In the proposed system, sparse transmit arrays with quantized phase shifter are used to carry out transmit beamforming to enhance the performance of both radar sensing and communication. Through interaction with environment, the automotive radar learns a reward that reflects the difference between mainlobe peak and the peak sidelobe level in radar sensing mode or communication user feedback in communication mode, and intelligently adjust its beamforming vector. The Wolpertinger policy based actioncritic network is introduced for beamforming vector learning, which solves the dimension curse due to huge beamforming action space.

The problem of direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation of quasi-stationary signals using a nested array in unknown noise field is investigated and two methods based on differencing method and eigenspace are proposed in this paper. Through performing differencing between the virtual received data, the unknown noise component is directly removed from the data model. The resulting data model is then utilized to find out the DOAs of the signals based on the theory of subspace. Thanks to the configuration of the nested array, it can produce large degrees of freedom (DOF) in the virtual sensorarray which provides the virtual received data. These increased DOF can contribute enhanced resolution in DOA estimation. Numerical simulations of DOA estimation exhibit the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed methods.

Microphone arrays provide new opportunities for noise reduction and speech enhancement. This paper presents a novel decomposition of the estimation problems for short-time spectral amplitude (STSA), log STSA, and phase in the Bayesian estimation framework. The decomposition is based on the notion of sufficient statistics for the microphone array case. It nicely generalizes the well-known single-channel Ephraim-Malah estimators [4, 5] to the microphone array case. We also compare noise reduction obtained in the single channel with the two- and four-channel cases on real data.
