Localization of multiple sources with moving arrays

We consider the problem of localizing multiple narrow-band stationary signals using an arbitrary time-varying array such as an array mounted on a moving platform. We,assume a Gaussian stochastic model for the received signals and employ the Generalized Least Squares (GLS) estimator to get an asymptotically-efficient estimation of the model parameters. In case the signals are a-priori known to be uncorrelated, this estimator allows to exploit this prior knowledge to its benefit. For the important case of translational motion of a rigid array, a computationally-efficient spatial-smoothing method is presented. Simulation results confirming the theoretical results are included.
