Course Description

Introduction: Signal detection and enhancement, Signal characterization, Tracking, Filtering vs parameter estimation, Array processing literature Signals in Space and Time: Propagating waves, Dispersion and attenuation, Refraction and diffraction, Frequency-Wavenumber space, Snapshot models, Space time random processes, Orthogonal expansions of plane-wave, spatially spread, frequency spread and closely spaced signals, Parametric wavenumber model Apertures and arrays: Finite continuous apertures (linear and circular), Spatial sampling, Arrays of Discrete sensors, Linear arrays, Planar arrays (Rectangular, circular, hexagonal arrays and circular apertures), Non planar arrays (spherical and cylindrical) Beamforming Delay and sum beamformer, Space time Filtering, Filter and sum beamforming, Frequency domain beamforming, Array gain, Resolution, Discrete time beamforming, Averaging in time and space, Synthesis of linear arrays and apertures, Synthesis of planar arrays and apertures, Optimum Waveform estimation Response of arrays and apertures to space-time random processes, Optimum beamformers (MVDR, MMSE and MPDR), Discrete interferences, Spatially spread interferences, Multiple Plan-wave signals, Mismatched MVDR and MPDR beamformers, LCMV and LCMP beamformers, Eigenvector beamformers, Beamspace MPDR, LCMP beamformers, Quadratically constrained beamformers, Soft constrained beamformers, Beamforming for correlated signal and interferences, Broad band beamformers Upon completion of this course, students will have a 1. Solid and firm understanding of representing realistic space-time signals in frequencywavenumber space through various models 2. physically based understanding of applying different apertures and arrays to receive or transmit signals 3. Thorough exposure to the most important application of array signal processing i.e. deterministic beamformers and their statistical analog the statistically optimum beamformers with known statistics.
