Abstract
Real-time source localization is crucial for high-end automation and artificial intelligence (AI) products. However, a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and limited processing time can reduce localization accuracy. This work proposes a new architecture for a time-domain feedback-based beamformer that meets real-time processing demands. The main objective of this design is to locate reflective sources by estimating their direction of arrival (DOA) and signal range. Incorporating a feedback mechanism in this architecture refines localization precision, a unique aspect of this approach. We conducted an in-depth analysis to compare the effectiveness of time-domain feedback beamforming against conventional time-domain methods, highlighting their benefits and limitations. Our evaluation of the proposed architecture, based on critical performance indicators such as peak-to-sidelobe ratio, mainlobe width, and directivity factor, demonstrates its ability to improve beamformer effectiveness significantly.
