Abstract:To increase the capacity of mobile communications, it is important to accurately estimate the power and the direction of arrival (DOA) of source. An efficient algorithm is proposed for this purpose. A cost function is optimized by using the particle swarm optimization (PSO). To accelerate the convergence of the fitness function of PSO, the inertia weights of particles are different from each other and are updated according to the values of fitness. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm not on… Show more
Accurate and rapid measurement of wind speed and direction is an important research topic. However, the current measurement algorithms based on ultrasonic arrays are constrained by the large computational effort caused by the spectrum peak search, which hinders the development and application of ultrasonic array wind parameter measurement technology. To overcome this problem, this study applies an intelligent optimization algorithm for measuring wind speed and direction based on a co-prime arc ultrasonic array, which avoids the problem of a large number of calculations in the spectrum peak search. First, the spatial-spectral function of the propagator method algorithm is employed as the fitness function of the particle swarm optimization algorithm. Then, the wind parameter estimation problem is formulated as a function optimization problem, which realizes the fast and accurate measurement of wind speed and direction. Then, the artificial bee colony algorithm is used to measure wind speed and direction, further reducing the calculation amount of the wind parameter measurement. The performance and speed of the proposed method are verified by the design simulation and comparison experiments, reducing the time complexity by up to 90%. In addition, the feasibility of the proposed method is validated in hardware experiments.
