Convolution Neural Networks for Localization of Near-Field Sources via Symmetric Double-Nested Array

We present the convolution neural networks (CNNs) to achieve the localization of near-field sources via the symmetric double-nested array (SDNA). Considering that the incoherent near-field sources can be separated in the frequency spectrum, we first calculate the phase difference matrices and consid...
