Abstract

A dynamic programming (DP) method coupled with two dimensional (2D) harmonic retrieval is proposed for joint estimation of hop timing and direction-of-arrival (DOA) of multiple frequency hopped spread spectrum (FHSS) signals using an antenna array, without knowledge of hopping patterns and hop rates of the users.
