M. Wax et A. Leshem, JOINT ESTIMATION OF TIME DELAYS AND DIRECTIONS OF ARRIVAL OF MULTIPLEREFLECTIONS OF A KNOWN SIGNAL, IEEE transactions on signal processing, 45(10), 1997, pp. 2477-2484
We present an efficient algorithm for estimating the time delays and t
he directions-of-arrival (DOA's) of multiple reflections of a known si
gnal, The algorithm is based on an iterative scheme that transforms th
e multidimensional maximum likelihood criterion into two sets of simpl
e one-dimensional (1-D) maximization problems. Simulation results illu
strating the performance of the algorithm in comparison with the Crame
r-Rao bound are included.
