A digital spectrum analysis apparatus and method for direction finding (DF) and location is provided. The digital spectrum analysis apparatus includes: a multi-channel unit configured to convert signals inputted from antennas into digital signals, reduce a sampling rate of the digital signals by using a digital down converter (DDC), and convert the digital signals into baseband complex signals, and having a plurality of channels; a DF estimator configured to estimate the direction of the signal; a spectrum processing unit configured to map any one of a bearing and a power level of the baseband complex signal into coordinate system, and allocate different colors to one of the bearings and the power levels depending on the accumulation ratio of one of the bearing and the power level; and a display unit configured to display the power level and the bearing with colors.

Digital cumulative spectrum analysis apparatus and method for direction finding and location

A log periodic antenna includes first and second transmission lines parallel with each other; and a plurality of broadband radiation elements having first sides electrically connected to the first and second transmission lines, a predetermined angle being defined between the first sides of the broadband radiation elements and the first and second transmission lines, and second sides not electrically connected with the first and second transmission lines, the second sides having radiation surfaces larger than radiation surfaces of the first sides. A plurality of broadband radiation elements electrically connected with the first transmission line and a plurality of broadband radiation elements electrically connected with the second transmission line are positioned to face each other with reference to the first and second transmission lines.

Log periodic antenna

A digital spectrum analysis apparatus and method for direction finding (DF) and location is provided. The digital spectrum analysis apparatus for single-channel direction finding includes: a digital processing unit configured to receive a signal, convert the received signal into a digital signal, reduce a sampling rate of the digital signal by using a digital down converter (DDC), and convert the digital signal into a baseband complex signal; a spectrum processing unit configured to map a bearing and a power level of the baseband complex signal into coordinate system, and allocate different colors to the power levels depending on the accumulation ratio of the power levels; and a display unit configured to display the power levels with colors in order to estimate the bearing of the signal.
