Abstract
In this paper, a new algorithm for near-field source localization is proposed based on a uniform linear array (ULA). First, the direction-of-arrivals (DOAs) of near-field sources at two symmetric phase points are obtained by using two overlapped subarrays of the ULA and second-order statistics-based method. Next, the DOA of each source at the phase origin is determined by exploiting the geometric relationships between the source and two phase points. Finally, with the DOA estimates, the ranges of near-field sources can be estimated by one-dimensional search. The proposed method involves neither two-dimensional search nor higher-order cumulant calculations and avoids parameter pair-matching process. Moreover, it can achieve higher accuracy than the existing efficient method. Numerical simulations are presented to verify the performance of the proposed method.
