Embodiment Construction

[0032] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0033] Step 1: Coprime Array Structure Design

[0034] Select two constants M and N that are mutually prime numbers, and use the constant d to represent the half-wavelength of the received signal. The coprime array is composed of two uniform linear arrays with spacings of Md and Nd respectively, and one of the uniform linear arrays has N Array elements, the array element spacing is Md, the other line array has 2M array elements, the array element spacing is Nd, the first array elements of the two line arrays overlap, there are a total of N+2M-1 array elements, because Both M and N are prime numbers, so this linear array is called a coprime array, and the structure of the coprime array is as follows figure 1 As shown, the coprime array is a non-uniform linear array with a special structure, so it can be further deduced on the model of the linear array; ...

Abstract

The invention provides a DOA (direction-of-arrival) estimation method employing a co-prime array, and relates to the field of array signal processing. Based on the sparse reconstruction idea in compressed sensing, the DOA estimation method for a co-prime construction based on an OMP algorithm solves a problem that an airspace smooth MUSIC algorithm causes the reduction of virtual array elements, and enables the number of detection targets to exceed MN. Because the co-prime array, a novel nest array, is employed, the DOA estimation performance is remarkably improved, and the number of estimated targets is increased. During the array multi-target estimation, the method is very good in estimation performance. During the use of the co-prime array, the number of estimated targets exceeds NM. The method further increases the number of estimated targets of the co-prime array under the same number of array elements. The method can carry out the reconstruction of a sparse signal simply and efficiently, finally gives a DOA estimation result quickly and efficiently. During a high SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio), the estimation precision of the method is higher than the precision of a spatial smooth MUSIC algorithm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of array signal processing, in particular to a direction-of-arrival estimation method. Background technique [0002] Direction of arrival estimation is widely used in radar, sonar and wireless communication. However, the traditional direction of arrival estimation method can only solve the situation where the number of targets is less than the number of array elements. Therefore, how to use a small number of array elements to detect more Multi-objective is a problem worthy of study. In practice, the commonly used N-element uniform line array can only estimate the direction of arrival of N-1 targets at most. In recent years, a linear array with a new geometric structure—coprime array has been proposed, which makes the number of estimated targets far exceed the number of array elements N. In fact, a coprime array with N+M array elements can estimate The number of targets can reach O(MN), that is, the number of targets...
