Cumulants-based near-field localization method for cross array
摘要
A direction-finding algorithm based on the cross array with the fourth-order cumulants (FOC) is proposed to cope with the near-field (NF) sources localization problem. By generating a FOC matrix on the X-axis, the quadratic term in the phase delay could be eliminated, and the received data on the uniform linear array (ULA) corresponding to the X-axis is converted into pseudo-data for the virtual far-field (FF) that subsequently operated by the vectorization. With several sampling delay to construct a covariance-like matrix, the estimates of the electrical angle
