Abstract

Transmission signal in wireless environment receives a signal in which a source signal, interference, and noise are mixed. The goal of this study is to estimate the desired signal from the received signal. In this paper, we have studied a method correctly estimating a target in spatial by modified beamformer method. The modified bemaformer uses an adaptive array antenna and perturbation matrix to obtain the optimal weight, and estimate the desired signal by radiating the beam in spatial. We estimate a desired signal of the target by improving resolution with the modified beamformer method which does not have complicated calculation amount. Through simulation, we compare and analyze the modified beamformer method and the MUSIC method with good resolution. In result of simulation, we showed that modified beamformer method has better resolution of 10degree than classical beamformer method and showed similar performance as the MUSIC method. The resolution of this paper was estimated to be about 5 degrees.

무선환경에서의 송신신호는 정보신호이외에 간섭, 잡음이 혼합된 신호가 수신된다. 수신기에 입사한 신호에서 원하는 신호를 추정하기 위해서 본 연구를 진행하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 수정된 빔형성기 방법으로 공간상의 목표물을 정확히 추정하는 방법에 대해서 연구하였다. 수정된 빔형성기 방법은 적응배열 안테나와 섭동공분산행렬을 사용하여 최적의 가중치를 획득하고 공간상에 빔을 주사하여 원하는 신호를 추정한다. 계산량이 많지 않은 수정 빔형성기 방법으로 분해능을 향상시켜 원하는 목표물의 신호를 추정한다. 모의실험을 통하여 수정 빔형성기 방법과 분해능이 우수한 MUSIC방법과 성능을 비교분석한다. 모의실험결과로 본 연구에서 수정 빔형성기 방법이 기존의 빔형성기 방법보다 분해능이 10도 향상되었고 MUSIC방법과 비슷한 성능의 결과를 나타내었다. 본 연구의 분해능은 약 5도까지 원하는 신호를 추정하였다.
