Localization and identification of unknown target signal using oblique projection

The problem of source localization and waveform identification is the key of array signal processing. In this paper, an oblique projection-based localization and identification (OPLI) algorithm is proposed without known prior DOA or waveform information of the sources. The proposed OPLI is implemented iteratively. In each iteration, oblique projection is employed to separate the multiple incident signals into a series of single signal groups. After that, the procedure of waveform and DOA estimation for each single signal is implemented. Theoretical analysis and simulation result verify the performance and effectiveness of the proposed OPLI.
