arrayprocessing

Array processing algorithms and simulation for RF array design, direction of arrival (DOA) / direction finding (DF), and geolocation.

Current Element Types

• Monopole

Current Geometry Types

• Linear
• Random

Current Array Types

• Uniformly Weighted
• Classical Beamformer

To Do

• Circular geometry
• Planar geometry
• Y geometry
• MVDR Beamformer
• Null Steered
• Combination Beamformer (combinations of above types i.e. MVDR + null steered)
• Implement DF algorithms (MVDR, MPDR, MUSIC, ESPIRIT, others?)
• Tools for DF error
• Array type for arbitrary geometry passed as [N, 3] numpy array
• Doublet elements
• Give elements a plot_response() function
• Read arrays and geometries from CSV
• Add data simulation and dataset support
• Add tests
• Integrate with empy and work towards arbitrary EM/RF simulation

arrayprocessing's Issues

Investigation

Compressed beamforming seems very interesting...
