Summary :

This paper presents a weighted spatial filter (WSF) design method based on direction of arrival (DOA) estimates for a novel array configuration called a sum and difference composite co-array. A sum and difference composite co-array is basically a combination of sum and difference co-arrays. Our configuration can realize higher degrees of freedom (DOF) with the sum co-array part at a calculation cost lower than those of the other sparse arrays. To further enhance the robustness of our proposed sum and difference composite co-array we design an optimal beam pattern by WSF based on the information of estimated DOAs. Performance of the proposed system and the DOA estimation accuracy of close-impinging waves are evaluated through computer simulations.
