Abstract
MUSIC (Massey University simple Instructional Computer) was designed to fit into a university computer science course and nevertheless to remain realistic. It is a one-address machine with a byte-addressed virtual memory and a fixed format macro-assembly language, and is implemented as an assembler and emulator running on a Burroughs B6700. It has been used very successfully as a teaching tool for two years, notably because of its straightforward design and the provision of excellent error messages.

Biquaternion noncircular MUSIC
A biquaternion-based direction-finding algorithm for noncircular sources is presented. The covariance and conjugate covariance matrices of the array output are utilized symmetrically within a frame of biquaternions. The direction-of-arrivals are found ...
Beamspace Root-MUSIC for minimum redundancy linear arrays
Beamspace Root-MUSIC, a computationally efficient beamspace implementation of Root-MUSIC developed recently for use in conjunction with a uniformly spaced linear array (ULA), is discussed. Computationally efficient methods for using beamspace Root-MUSIC ...
Improved MUSIC using uniform subarrays
SSAP '96: Proceedings of the 8th IEEE Signal Processing Workshop on Statistical Signal and Array Processing (SSAP '96)Performance analysis shows the asymptotic optimality of the MUSIC technique applied to bearing estimation problems for a sufficiently large number of sensors and not fully-coherent sources. This implies that a large number of covariance lags has to be ...
