Fast, accurate and efficient sensing is of important aspects in cognitive radio technology. We propose a simple, practical design for two-dimensional sensing in spectral and spatial domain. In fact detection and localization of signal are done in a wide band elliptical array. Two sets of phase differences help to fast calculation of frequency and angle of arrival. We study the constraints, advantages and accuracy of the method. ©2009 IEEE  

in this paper detection and the accuracy of measurement of range, velocity and DOA in PCL radar for optimized parameters is considered. It is shown that, in order to measure the bistatic characteristics of a target, we can process the monostatic ambiguity function and extract the bistatic factors by proposed Algorithm. ©2006 IEEE  

Numerous methods for direction of arrival (DOA) estimation, used in smart antennas have been already reported in previous studies. The precision of DOA estimation depends on the choice of the algorithm and the geometrical configuration of the antenna array. In this work, the performance of new geometrical configurations, i.e. 2D with equal area and 3D with equal volume including circular, square, triangular, hexagonal and star geometries, with equal number of antenna elements, are examined and compared to each other to find the most proper geometry. Monte-Carlo simulations are performed to evaluate the DOA precision of the proposed arrays using the MUSIC algorithm. It is shown that in three... 

Signal direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation using an array of sensors has been the subject of intensive research and development during the last two decades. Efforts have been directed to both, better solutions for the general data model and to develop more realistic models. So far, many authors have assumed the data to be independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) samples of a multivariate statistical model. Although this assumption reduces the complexity of the model, it may not be true in certain situations where signals show temporal correlation. Some results are available on the temporally correlated signal model in the literature. The temporally correlated stochastic Cramér-Rao... 

There are inherent errors in target location and velocity measurement caused by bistatic geometry in addition to the errors that are caused in monostotic radars. In this paper, the accuracy of measurement with respect to some parameters like baseline variance and DOA estimation is considered and bistatic parameters sensitivity with respect together is formulated
