Performance Comparison Between Music And Esprit Algorithms For Direction Estimation Of Arrival Signals
… Parameters via Rotational Invariance Techniques (ESPRIT) for the estimation of Direction of Arrival (DOA) of incoming signals to the smart antenna. The comparison of these two algorithms was done on the basis of parameters like number of array elements, number of incoming signals, angle difference …

Le nouvel esprit de l’université : une institution au défi de la troisième mission
This thesis focuses on the evolution of the university in French-speaking Belgium since the European reforms of the end of the 20th century (Sorbonne declaration, Bologna process, Lisbon strategy). We start from the observation that universities are now subject to injunctions from the New Public …

Electromagnetic Vector-Sensor Direction-of-Arrival Estimation in the Presence of Interference
… in this thesis relies on a high-resolution ESPRIT-based algorithm. Unlike spatially displaced arrays, the sensor cannot estimate the DOA of sources using phase differences between the array elements, as the elements are spatially co-located. However, the sensor measures the full …

Localized Kernel Methods for Signal Processing
… estimation. We compare our method with MUSIC and ESPRIT, which are classical subspace-based algorithms widely used for estimating the parameters of exponential signals. In the univariate case, the method outperforms MUSIC and ESPRIT under low signal-to-noise ratios. For the multivariate case, we …

Complex Personalities: An Original Composition For Virtual Wind Ensemble And An Accompanying Exploration Of The Effects Of The Internet On Music Collaboration And Composition
… the impact that the internet has had on the <em>esprit de corps</em> of the musical community. As a mechanism for that exploration, it also includes an original composition comprised of three character pieces. The exegesis of the piece will describe the basis of these musical representations and …

Evaluation of Joint AOA and DOA Estimation Algorithms Using the Antenna Array Systems
… Parameters via Rotational Invariance Techniques ESPRIT algorithms. Since using delay of arrival information can improve AOA estimates and classical PL algorithms do not incorporate Delay of Arrival (DOA) information, the performance of these algorithms is not optimal. Recently proposed Joint AOA …
