In this paper, we study for direction of arrival estimation of the desired target in spatial adaptive processing system. The interference signal removed by using the optimal weight of the covariance correlation matrix in order to estimate desired target signal. The spatial adaptive processing system updates the weight of the direction of arrival algorithm to estimate the desired signal. The weight update use an adaptive algorithm such as MUSIC. The optimal weight is obtained by Lagrange multiplier and the covariance correlation matrix. The covariance correlation matrix applies signal phase matching and uses the output power spectrum of the direct of arrival algorithm to estimate the desired target direction. We compare the performance of the proposed method with the existing method by computer simulation. The existing method has poor resolution due to phase errors of 5o and -3o in the estimation of three targets [10o, 20o, 30o]. While, the method proposed in this study accurately estimated the desired three targets. This study proved that the proposed method is superior to the existing method as a result simulation result.

To meet the high real-time performance and high accuracy requirements of signal detection in the rail splicing process, this paper proposes a new type of magnetic grid rail splicing method based on accurately zeroing output signal phase difference of two magnetic grid reading heads, thus establishing two reading heads “shift” rules. The accurate zero setting technology of phase difference is based on Nuttall window algorithm, which doesn’t need to give the exact signal frequency beforehand and sample periodically, and can effectively eliminate phase errors. So this algorithm is suitable for detecting signal phase difference when reading heads go over buff joints with any speed at any initial position. Additionally, simulation test and experimental verification were performed on this detection algorithm and “shift” rules. The results show that, the method mentioned in this paper can real-time detect the phase difference by “shift” rules, when reading heads go over buff joints with any speed or any acceleration.

The problem of image signal processing in the information system with adaptive antenna array based on the inversion of sample estimates of correlation matrix of observations is considered. The example of the maximum signal-to-noise ratio criterion shows the problem, inherent in classical methods of finding the optimal weight vector under a priori uncertainty conditions when detecting correlated image signals. It has been concluded that the dependence of these methods on the inverse of estimation of the correlation matrix of observations leads to the impossibility of separating correlated image signals. As a consequence, the use of classical methods of finding the optimal weight vector in the information system with adaptive antenna array is effective only in the case of image restoration from a single signal source, with the signal received on the set of independent jamming background. A novel method, invariant to the correlation of image signals, has been developed for finding the optimal weight vector without the usage of correlation matrix of observations. An image restoration algorithm invariant to correlation of image signals in the information system with adaptive antenna array is proposed. Statistical models have been constructed for the classical method based on the criterion of maximum signal-to-noise ratio and invariant to correlation method of image restoration in following cases: a single source against the jamming background of two independent sources; two independent sources against the jamming background. Simulation results in the information system with adaptive antenna array are presented, showing to visually assess efficiency of proposed methods of image signal restoration using optimal weight vector. Detailed analysis of the results obtained is carried out.
