Abstract EN
Due to the variable curvature of the conformal carrier, the pattern of each element has a different direction.
The traditional method of analyzing the conformal array is to use the Euler rotation angle and its matrix representation.
However, it is computationally demanding especially for irregular array structures.
In this paper, we present a novel algorithm by combining the geometric algebra with Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC), termed as GA-MUSIC, to solve the direction of arrival (DOA) for cylindrical conformal array.
And on this basis, we derive the pattern and array manifold.
Compared with the existing algorithms, our proposed one avoids the cumbersome matrix transformations and largely decreases the computational complexity.
The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
