A Generalized Array Manifold Model for Local Scattering in Wireless Communications

• In wireless communication scenarios, local scatterers in the vicinity of the mobile sources cause angular spreading. As a result, the spatial signatures will not belong to the conventional array manifold parameterized by direction of arrival (DOA) alone. A parameterized model for spatial signatures applicable in scenarios with localscattering is presented. Several algorithms that exploit this model are proposed, and the performance of signal waveform estimators using the model is investigated via simulations. It is demonstrated that considerable gain may result as compared with using the conventional plane wave model.
