Abstract :
This paper presents the design and analysis of smart antenna systems used for the detection and estimation of correlated radio signals encountered in multipath environments using circular antenna arrays. The MUSIC algorithm along with spatial smoothing is used for this purpose. A Matlab-based graphical user interface (GUI) toolbox is designed specifically for this purpose. The toolbox allows for studying the effect of varying those related to circular antenna array itself as well as those related to the surrounding environment.
