Abstract

The invention discloses a sparse array based strong and weak multi-objective super-resolution direction finding and source number estimation method, belongs to the technical field of signal processing, is suitable for direction of arrival parameter extraction and source number estimation during the wide-frequency interval strong and weak multi-signal coexistence, and has the multi-objective direction-of-arrival super-resolution estimation ability in the same beam width. The main idea is to: determine a sparse optimization array, obtain effective sample data received by the sparse optimizationarray, and calculate a steering vector matrix of the sparse optimization array; obtain effective sample data (shown in the description) after amplitude and phase error correction, and then obtain detected and estimated K sources in the effective sample data X received by the sparsely optimization array and the final signal direction-of-arrival set (shown in the description); the detected and estimated K sources in the effective sample data X received by the sparsely optimization array and the final signal direction-of-arrival set (shown in the description) are sparse array based strong and weak multi-objective super-resolution direction finding and source number estimation results.

Problems solved by technology

[0002] Due to the far-near effect and the difference in transmission power of each source in a complex electromagnetic environment, the coexistence of strong and weak signals falling into the bandwidth of the receiver in the received data of electronic reconnaissance often occurs; wide-band electronic reconnaissance faces the following problems: (1) uniform sparse array , there are problems of ambiguity in high-frequency direction finding and strong mutual coupling in low-frequency direction finding; (2) the existence of strong signals makes it difficult to extract weak signal parameters; (3) multiple signals falling into the same beam width with low SNR , resulting in the failure of traditional beamforming direction finding and multiple signal classification (Multiple Signal Classification, MUSIC) methods; (4) the existence of amplitude and phase errors in the array system, resulting in a decrease in direction finding accuracy

[0003] For (1), the use of sparse optimized array (authorized invention patent "a sparse planar array optimization method based on space gain (ZL201310433324.X)) can alleviate the problem of "cannot take into account high and low frequencies"; but for (2)- (4) The problem has not been solved
