In this document, we discuss the principles and algorithms behind spatial spectrum estimation, with a specific focus on using information theory to estimate the number of sources. We also provide a sample Matlab source code for implementing this method.
Spatial spectrum estimation is a fundamental problem in signal processing, and it has numerous applications in areas such as wireless communication, radar, and sonar. The goal of this technique is to estimate the direction of arrival of signals from multiple sources, based on measurements taken from multiple sensors.
One of the key challenges in this problem is determining the number of sources present in the signal. Traditional methods for solving this problem rely on statistical models, which can be computationally expensive and require strong assumptions about the underlying data distribution. An alternative approach is to use information theory, which provides a more flexible and data-driven framework for estimating the number of sources.
To demonstrate this approach, we provide a sample Matlab implementation of the information theory-based method for estimating the number of sources. This implementation is based on the minimum description length (MDL) criterion, which provides a principled way of balancing model complexity and data fit. The code is fully commented and can be easily adapted for use with different data sources and applications.
Overall, this document provides a comprehensive overview of the principles and algorithms behind spatial spectrum estimation, as well as a practical example of how to implement this technique using Matlab. By providing a detailed explanation of the underlying theory and code implementation, we hope to enable researchers and practitioners to apply this technique to their own signal processing problems.
