DOA Estimation for Local Scattered CDMA Signals by Particle Swarm Optimization

This paper deals with the direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation of local scattered code-division multiple access (CDMA) signals based on a particle swarm optimization (PSO) search. For conventional spectral searching estimators with local scattering, the searching complexity and estimating accuracy strictly depend on the number of search grids used during the search. In order to obtain high-resolution and accurate DOA estimation, a smaller grid size is needed. This is time consuming and it is unclear how to determine the required number of search grids. In this paper, a modified PSO is presented to reduce the required search grids for the conventional spectral searching estimator with the effects of local scattering. Finally, several computer simulations are provided for illustration and comparison.
