Abstract
DOA estimation for wideband sources with sensor arrays is one of the key issues in acoustic tracking. An improvement on the wideband DOA estimation is proposed. The new covariance matrix of the frequency bin is obtained by averaging the covariance matrices of its adjacent frequency bins, and then the general wideband algorithms are used to estimate the DOAs. Compared with the wideband algorithm without covariance matrix smoothing, the improvement has higher resolution and smaller root mean square error except high signal-noise-ratio. The theoretical expressions indicate that the improvement is effective. The performance of the improvement is also demonstrated and analyzed through the computer simulations.
