Abstract :
An antenna array at the base station can be used for mobile source localization and to unravel multipath propagation structures in terms of angles and delays. A previously proposed technique for this purpose is the shift-invariance joint angle-delay estimation (SIJADE) algorithm. We extend this algorithm to a hexagonal array and apply it to measured indoor channel data
