Abstract

This paper presents a survey and a comparison between different radio direction finding implementations, leading to identify the best option for implementation of this feature in spectrum management activities for developing countries. The implementations analyzed include classic techniques like Pseudo-Doppler and advanced high-resolution techniques like MUSIC. Different hardware alternatives to implement the algorithms are presented, including SDR (Software Defined Radio), FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) and DSP (Digital Signal Processing). Also some hybrid configurations are included, where software and hardware are combined aiming to optimize time and cost resources. Finally some commercial applications are shown. These use angle of arrival, time difference of arrival and other parameters for triangulation or trilateration purposes.
