A Sparse Signal Reconstruction Perspective for Source Localization with Sensor Arrays
Alan WillskyContributors: Dmitry Malioutov, Müjdat Çetin
SensorWeb MURI Review Meeting December 2, 2005
Source Localization Problem
Source localization based on passive sensor measurements
Our approach: View the problem as one of imaging a “source density” over the field of regard Ill-posed inverse problem (overcomplete basis
representation) Favor sparse fields with concentrated densities
Contributions/Highlights Source localization framework using lp-norm-
based sparsity constraints Efficient techniques for synergistic use of all data
and efficient algorithms for numerical solution Theoretical results:
Justification based on properties of the data and human goals
Solution of combinatorial optimization problems by computationally feasible algorithms!
Extensive performance analysis on simulated data
Self-calibration for sensor location uncertainties Experimental results on ARL’s acoustic data
Source Localization Framework
Cost functional (notional):
Data fidelity Regularizing sparsity constraint
Role of the regularizing constraint : Preservation of strong features (source densities) Preference of sparse source density field Can resolve closely-spaced radiating sources
Observation model:
Sensor measurementsArray manifold matrix Unknown “source density”
Noise
Data Processing and Optimization Algorithms
SVD-based approach for processing and using multiple time or frequency snapshots efficiently and synergistically
Two numerical optimization algorithms: One based on half-quadratic regularization One based on second-order cone
programming and interior point algorithms Fast multiresolution approach for iteratively
refining the search around likely source locations
Theoretical Results on lp regularization
Observations: Preferring the optimally sparse solution would involve l0-
norms But that requires solving combinatorial optimization
problems lp-norm-based techniques have been empirically
observed to yield solutions that look sparse Question: Can we ever get the optimally sparse
solution using lp–norms? Interestingly, the answer, as we have found out,
is YES! Provided that the actual spatial spectrum is sparse
enough This provides a rigorous characterization of the lp–
sparsity link As a result, we can solve a combinatorial optimization
problem by tractable algorithms!
Performance Analysis on Simulated Data
Narrow-band and wide-band signals Far-field and near-field sources Incoherent and coherent (due to multipath)
sources Linear, circular, cross, rectangular arrays Wide range of SNRs Wide range of the number of snapshots
We will show only a subset of this analysis
Narrowband, uncorrelated sources – high SNR
DOAs: 65, 70 SNR = 10 dB
Far-field 200 time samples Uniform linear array with 8
sensors
Narrowband, uncorrelated sources – low SNR
DOAs: 65, 70 SNR = 0 dB
Far-field 200 time samples Uniform linear array with 8
sensors
Narrowband, correlated sources
DOAs: 63, 73 SNR = 20 dB
Far-field 200 time samples Uniform linear array with 8

Robustness to limitations in data quantity
Uncorrelated sources Uniform linear array with 8 sensors
DOAs: 43, 73 SNR = 20 dB
Single time-sample processing
Resolving many sources

MUSIC
Proposed
Underlying true spectrum
Extension to Self-calibration What if we don’t know the sensor locations
exactly? Extended our framework to include optimization
over sensor locations Setup for experiments:
Far-field case Narrowband signals Linear array with 15 sensors Two uncorrelated sources DOAs: 45, 75 SNR = 30 dB Sensor locations perturbed with a standard deviation of
1/3 of the nominal sensor spacing
Self-calibration Example
Moderate calibration errors can be compensated up to intrinsic ambiguities
Validation on real data provided by ARL
• Six acoustic sensor arrays in oval loop.
• Each has a circular array configuration with seven microphones.
• Tanks and trucks travel on oval loop or on nearby asphalt road.
