Abstract

Direction of arrival (DOA) estimation is one of the key technologies in smart antennas in the direct sequence ultra wideband (DS-UWB) system. Traditional DOA estimation methods based on narrow-band signals are not suitable for such system. Therefore, a fourth-order cumulant-based estimation method of DOA for DS-UWB signal is proposed. This method is set on the frequency domain model of DS-UWB array signal. Simulation results show that the algorithm is effective and can guarantee adequate estimation accuracy.
