Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

Abstract

By minimizing an objective function in the form of the l2 norm, we obtain algorithms for analyzing the reliability of estimating the number of paths of a multipath field and the spatial coordinates of a source. The proposed methods, based on the criterion of wavefront shape, generalize the known techniques for the division of a multipath field with a given number of paths. We present the results of numerical simulations for typical ionospheric conditions.
